Wiz Biz II : Cursed and Consulted

Rating:
Summary: A fascinating breath of fresh air
Review: This wonderful book is actually two books for the price of one: The Wizardry Cursed and The Wizardry Consulted! These novels tell the continuing story of Walter Irving "Wiz" Zumwalt, a computer programmer and magician extraordinaire. Hijacked from Earth to a world where magic works and technology doesn't, Wiz realized that magic could be worked liked programming, and turned the world upside down. First, Wiz must control how the "new" magic is used, so as to avoid a war between humans and the powerful beings that have run the world up to this point. But, this proves to not be the hardest job facing Wiz, when a couple of malicious hackers from Earth make their own journey to the other side.

This is a great book, one that I have enjoyed reading several times. The system of magic that Rick Cook used was a fascinating breath of fresh air, and I must say that I enjoyed the stories and characters immensely! I highly recommend this light-hearted swords-and-sorcery fantasy to you.
