"The Magician's Tale" is a short book of twelve stories from the perspective of some of the lesser known characters of the New Testament. Each comes from a different viewpoint. For example "The Tale of Old Mr. Righteous" is an old man looking back over his whole life until he finally discovers the answer; whereas "The Fisherman's Tale" is from the perspective of one of the original disciples telling his story and yet showing the reader that he still doubts and still suffers (as they do), yet he also knows that Jesus is there even within the storms and pains of life. "The Wedding Guest's" tale is a much more magical account in a modern setting. The stories are highly readable and will grab attention because of their graphic and unusual nature. The characters are real and believable yet the stories are also magical, thus linking with the current explosion of books from the magic/fantasy genre.
