Book Three of the Magic Kingdom of Landover Series
It all began when the half-able wizard Questor Thews announced that finally he could restore the Court Scribe Abernathy to human form. It was his spell that had turned Abernathy into a Wheaten Terrier—though with hands and able to talk.
All went well—until the wizard breathed the magic dust of his spell and suddenly sneezed. Then, where Abernathy had stood, there was only a bottle containing a particularly evil imp. It had been in the collection of Michael Ard Rhi, former King of Landover, now exiled to Earth. Abernathy must now be a part of that collection!
High Lord Ben Holiday set forth for Earth, taking his green but beautiful love, Willow, with him. Unfortunately, they were long in returning. And without the soil in which to root as a tree at times, Willow could not long survive.
That left it up to Questor Thews to save them. Grimly he set out to seek help, knowing himself to be incompetent. And to make things worse, the imp had escaped and sought the help of the evil witch Nightshade, now back from exile in Faerie.
Questor's only idea seemed impossible, but . . .

From the Inside Flap:
Questor Thews is only a semi-competent wizard, but when High Lord Ben Holiday and his love Willow need use of his powers, he tries to comply. He tries, all right, but he doesn't have all that much faith in himself--not since he turned a terrier into an imp. Still, he'll do what he can....

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. Shelly Shapiro (Map of Landover) (illustrator). First Edition, 21st Printing. Text/NEW. , w/trace edge rubs to softcover. Fantasy fiction. Sequel to Magic Kingdom for Sale - Sold (1986), and, The Black Unicorn (1987). This is Book 3 in Terence Dean "Terry" Brooks' (1944 -), author of 23 N.Y.Times best sellers, series of 6 volumes in the Magic Kingdom of The Landover Series. Error-prone Wizard Questor Thews, who, in a spell-gone-wrong, had earlier transformed Court Scribe Abernathy into a Wheaten Terrier (w/hands & able to talk) --- the Wheaten is based on Brooks' own dog who napped by him as he wrote; over time Brooks thought ?You know, this dog is worthless, there must be some way to get something out of this dog", so it was Brooks figured by using him as a character in a book he "could make some money off of him anyway"). In this tale the Wizard precedes to rectify his past error. However an inopportune sneeze while sprinkling magic dust, has Abernathy, a Wheaten no longer but not yet in his former original human form, is turned into a bottle containing an evil imp! What happens then?. Seller Inventory # 013429
