In best-selling author Card’s sequel to The Lost Gate, which introduced the story of the Mages of Westil, Danny North looks like your average high schooler but has the outselves of 13 centuries of gatemages packed tight in his mind. He’s rendered poor Wad, back on Westil, pretty much powerless and, having stolen power from Loki, is now responsible for the Great Gates. That should sober him up, even if he is just a kid. Expect lots of demand.
