Six unlikely heroes must save a magical realm from dark sorcery in this delightful fantasy from New York Times-bestselling author Alan Dean Foster.
Wizard Susname Enyndd was the Gowdlands' kingdom's most powerful protector. Then the sinister Khaxan Mundurucu and a band of goblin-warlocks from the Totumakk Horde conjured up a curse that reduced the wizard to ash and leeched all the color from the land.
But with Enyndd's death came a spell that enchanted his six familiar pets-the terrier Oskar, the songbird Taj, the boa Samm, and the cats Cezer, Cocoa, and Mamakitty-transforming them into human beings capable of wielding magic. Now, the six companions must embark on a quest into a rainbow to find the one thing that can lift the evil curse: the White Light. As they travel through myriad colorful kingdoms while avoiding deadly enemies, each must learn how to control their magical powers-and try to get the hang of being human.
But at the end of the rainbow, the heroes discover an unsettling truth about their quest-and about the magic that can bring about the end of everything . . .
