The Lady Farrel leaves the Elvin-Human Empire accompanied by three dwarves: the bardic mage, Spiro, his new apprentice Renara, and Tett, the bodyguard, whose wit is not exactly as sharp as his sword. Her quest is to save the life of her former fianc , now in hiding after the murder of his father. Confronting creatures of Shadow, a wicked witch, and worse are among the challenges she and her friends will face- on a journey destined to lead to her death. Elsewhen in the Empire, a young Princess reads her story in a magic book. The words morph into an image of a robed adolescent looking up from reading fairy tales in the tower that serves as his temporary sanctuary. They stare at each other... Twisted fairy tales may prove to be not only Lady Farrel's only hope, but their world's.

Professor George Bradley, computer staff in hand, "envisions" an archaeological site, which could turn history on its head. The he falls through a ripple in reality. He enters a world where: trolls think they are human; elves believe humans can't do magic since they don't have souls; a child of prophecy is dying of a curse; a seeress keeps too many secrets; and an ogre and a boy struggle to save each other from a terrible evil. This is a world where a starship crash landed, bringing about a war, which led to the laws of magic defeating those of science. Here a demon rages, intent on destroying all life, its minions intent on killing the human mage from another world. If that wasn't bad enough, George's computer is now rather sarcastic... Welcome to the first book in the Highmage's Plight Series.

One unicorn is left in the world. Without that unicorn, the world has no hope to survive the Lord of Demons' plan to kill the human pestilence and their traitorous elvin allies. The unicorn's rider, the Hand of the Highmage, has fallen, not in battle, but to treachery. The elvin mage, Faeryn, is sent to investigate. What he learns threatens not just the Empire, but a distant land. For good or ill, a young princess reads their story among the histories in her secret library of magical books; a library where time does not hold sway. Outside its ethereal walls the Empire crumbles, falling to the fate the Lord of Demons has so long sought - no unicorn's magic to offer any hope. The little princess grows angry at what she learns, and a unicorn looks up into the sky... Welcome to Of Elves and Unicorns, the second book of the Hands of the Highmage Series.
