Summary
Snatched through a portal into a land of magic, a young
musician must use a mysterious, multistring duar to rescue the
world into which he has fallen before he can return to his
own.Jonathan Thomas Meriweather is a typical college student,
interested in girls, music, and an occasional taste of reefer.
But when a journey through an interdimensional portal lands him
in a world of talking animals and ominous sorcery, he finds he
is on a very different trip indeed. Here, when he plays a
strange instrument called a duar, peculiar things happen:
powerful magic that may be the only way to stop a dark force
that threatens his new world—and his old one.
Reluctantly, he finds himself teaming up with a semi-senile
turtle wizard; a thieving, backstabbing otter; and a bewildered
Marxist dragon to rally an army for the war about to come.
