The Road To Magic (Book 1 Of The Way Of The Demon Series) - Plot & Excerpts
‘Ata, I’ve done it! I’ve called forth a demon! Kreghist won’t be able to harm you now!’ And with these words the wizard flung himself at the girl. Now Oleg understood why he seemed so puny. The lad was not more than fifteen years old. The girl didn’t protest, but didn’t show any enthusiasm, either. She couldn’t take her eyes off Oleg. And he was truly fed up of standing around like a pillar so he headed towards the exit, but suddenly he felt some sort of opposition. The flames of the candles standing at the corners of the pentagram flickered in alarm. The wizard tore himself away from the girl whom he was undoubtedly trying to impress, and turned back to Oleg. Striking a pose he clearly thought to be grandiose, but for Oleg seemed extremely ungainly, he pronounced in a sing-song voice: ‘Halt, wily demon. Your urges are hampered by my art. Chasing another’s soul, you have fallen into the seal of my might and are henceforth obliged to obey me. Bow now before my will and the power of my might, and hearken, as a slave hearkens to its master, humbly and meekly!’ After pouring all this out in one breath, the lad stood stock-still, expecting some reaction, obviously believing this nonsense to be a spell.
