—What kid armed only with a paper sack of stage-magic tricks wouldn't like to believe that he could fight a powerful wizard . . . and win? When fourteen-year-old budding stage illusionist, Matt Collins, vanishes in a vortex of purple smoke, the live audience is astonished. So is Matt. The purple vortex is not his magic trick gone astray; it is the wicked wizard Crius swapping bodies with Matt. Trapped in the wizard's aged body and marooned in a medieval world of real magic, Matt seeks to return home to his own body before Crius's enemies kill him. But Matt cannot do real magic. His only weapons in his quest to stay alive are the magic tricks and illusions he practiced for the stage. Perhaps if he masters his presentation, these will be enough for him to survive. The Princess, the Knight, & the Knave is Book 1 of the Possible Magic Trilogy​​​​​​​, a backwards coming-of-age story. Cover design by Pat R. Steiner.
