THE TWO MAGICIANS finds Esmarelda and George Drumm, with Sylvestor the cat, on a quest to return the magic satchels that brought them together in The Time Dancer. The intrepid trio have their hands (and paws) full when they are drawn into the dangerous doings of meddling Witches, shape-shifting Familiars, half-mad Magicians, and inquisitive New-Agers.

The Story: The coming of the Summer Solstice Harmony Convention to Piper Canyon has increased the leakage between parallel timelines, there below The Top of The World where Future meets Past, and our rational world turns into a world of magic. With Robyn and her belly dance troupe joining the Harmony Convention on one side, and time-traveling Gypsies Esmarelda and George Drumm approaching the mystical Goathorn Mountains on the other, Brooks, Minder of the Knot and the Loophole, must work valiantly to keep everyone where they belong and prevent Time from unraveling. Before he is done, he will expose the dark history of the five sisters of the Goathorns Coven, the recent transgressions of their transmogriphying Familiars, the secret lives of the Two Magicians, and his own deepest desires.

Weaving throughout, Brooks' attempt to solve the mystery of "the purple-bound wonder," The Time Dancer, and discover the identity of the author behind "that preposterous nom de plume" further blurs the line between fantasy and reality.

Spring 2020: Mr. Brooks' ploy worked! The mysterious author has come forward with the final episode in the The Spiral Map of Time Trilogy. "...because once there is a Two, there must be a Three. Obviously." The Ten Years: double or nothing has arrived in the Alternate World.
