The Song of the Quarkbeast
As the background Wizidrical Power slowly builds after the Big Magic,
King Snodd IV of Hereford realises the man who controls Magic controls
almost anything.
But one person stands between him and his plans
for power and riches: Jennifer Strange, sixteen-year-old acting manager
of Kazam.
It may involve a trip on a magic carpet at the speed of sound to the Troll Wall, it may involve a second Quarkbeast sniffing
around town. It might also involve the mysterious Transient Moose, and a powerless sorceress named Once Magnificent Boo. But one thing is
certain: Jennifer Strange and her faithful assistant Tiger Prawns will
not relinquish the noble powers of magic to big business and commerce
without a fight.
