Description
In The Wizard of Zee, a story set around 150M BC on the continent of Gondwanalnd, 11-year-old Demki ventures away from the comfort zone of his family and into the wilderness. When he reaches the Valley of Zam, Demki meets the Wizard of Zee. He is of the same ethnic stock as Demki's family and friends: a migrant from the northern continent of Laurasia. Zee becomes Demki's mentor and teaches him to believe in himself. This entails many adventures. It is the time of the Spring Equinox Festival and Demki gets to meet shamans from far and wide, as well as many wild creatures. He learns to lose his fear of the wilderness. Demki hears of a great mission to save Gondwana from being captured by Bogaar, a mutant buffalo, and the Prince of Vulcana. Demki and his two neighbourhood friends, Clarion and Ruby, are sent up to Vulcana, to 'fight war with peace.' They are aided by the lion-man and Kabulu the chameleon. Will the mission succeed? Will Demki be able to celebrate his 12th birthday? What fate will the people of Gondwana have to face?
