Goff should have listened to the swishing willows whispering a warning that fateful fall afternoon-"You should not be here." But he wasn't the type to believe in magic or chatty trees or any other sort of hocus pocus...until he tried spellcasting at midnight in the cemetery as research for a school paper.

He emerged as a clueless, misfit wizard bound to be the mortal enemy of Harkland Mathers, the most powerful dark wizard in centuries.

If Goff can't find a way to stop it, Mathers will kill his friends and all the people in their tiny little town on Halloween night as part of a ritual to become invincible.

It's a spooky, whimsical, atmospheric, action-packed tale of magic and mayhem that has readers young and old turning pages, laughing, gasping and cheering for a misfit as he takes on a ruthless, skilled master while the spell of Autumn and Halloween flutters through the air.
