The third book in the series, 'The Wizards of Magog', takes Jon and his friends on an unexpected journey home. They had defeated Amethyst, the ogre witch-queen and Ebon, the rogue seer; yet the two friends found that forces beyond their control were conspiring to bring about the downfall of the seers and all that they stood for. Many leagues from their destination, Auger wind-rider, Jon and Hamill were thrown into what was the beginning of a deadly game. Ebon had returned as if from the dead only this time he had powerful allies, the Wizards of Magog. Ages old enemies of the Seers, they had found a way to manipulate the unsuspecting rebel seer and force a way into the world of the seers from whence they had been banished millennia ago. Old and valued friends have sought Jon out and together they endeavour to combat the unseen yet ever present influence of the maddened seer. Sorrow at the loss of one of their little band weighs heavy on their minds as Ebon reaches out across the void that separates them by means of The Rod of Dread.

Amethyst, the Ogre Witch-Queen, seeks to enslave Jacob, last of the Foresters, and usurp his powers. He obtains the aid of the Seers receiving a new staff with the power to defeat her. Hamill, least experienced of the seers, is charged with the task of gathering support from the dwarves and others. Darkness covers the land; violent storms and sickness strike at the heart of the Yield preventing former allies sending aid. Hamill turns to his friend, Jon and together they travel north to the Mountain City of the Colossi. Javelin, Archer and Trapper, three of the dwarves who fought with them against Ebon, rally to their cause, along with Braun, the Metal-master. This brave little band head south to meet the forester but Hamill did not count on having to battle with his feelings for Sylvia, an elf from the Ward who travels with them to Winters Hold. The journey is fraught with danger as they encounter opposition at every turn. Separated, they are captured by the ogres but Sylvia's ingenuity enables them to escape only for Hamill and the dwarves to fall foul of a trap. Facing Amethyst at last they challenge her in a combined effort; she summons the power that has lain dormant within her; a power that would have consequences for them all. Witness their struggles as they battle for the safety of the land and all who dwell in it. Will they finally subdue Amethyst saving them from a new dark age or will she become Witch-Queen over the land? Part two of the Golden Tome takes you on a breathtaking journey equal to the first. With your favorite characters from part one, Time Will Tell', it will have you spellbound and yearning for more.

The first part of this book is an extensive verse-by-verse commentary on the Book of Jubilees. Kugel's stated aim is "to understand what the text is saying and why it is saying it," and in particular to explore the numerous bits of biblical interpretation found in Jubilees and their connection to other exegetical writings of the Second Temple period. Subsequent chapters focus on the possibility that Jubilees had more than one author, as well as on the book’s specific relationship to four other Second Temple texts: the Genesis Apocryphon, the Aramaic Levi Document, 4Q225 Pseudo-Jubilees, and the writings of Philo of Alexandria.
