Cabbage is an apprentice wizard, and it is harvest time, when wizards travel to make the harvest safe. But when Cabbage and his master, Flaxfield, try to work the harvest spells, they encounter magic that turns the field to flames.
Bee is an apprentice wizard, and tomorrow is her twelfth birthday, when apprentices learn their true names. Bee's is Flame, a powerful name that her greedy master wants to steal. But doing so will disturb the universe, and it's hard to say what might be born out of the fire that results. . . .
In this companion to Dragonborn, Toby Forward creates an enchanting adventure set in a world out of balance-and introduces us to the marvelous characters who will set it right again.
