Zander, the self-proclaimed master of magical mayhem and captain of chaos, has spent 70 years at wizard college failing his way to the top—one explosive mishap at a time. Now, with his final exam on the horizon, he’s staring down his last chance to earn his diploma. The only problem? His spells are still as disastrous as ever.

This time, Zander must conquer his greatest fear: flying a magic carpet through skies plagued by hostile pigeons and sentient clouds that downright despise wizards—especially clumsy ones like him.

If he fails, it’s not just a failed exam. Zander will be expelled, branded a "wizen"—a wizard who can't perform magic without accidentally causing chaos within a 3-mile radius. And let’s be real, that’s not exactly a career-making move.

Zander the wizard, with robes all askew,

Tripped on his wand as he conjured a shoe.

He meant to make roses, but summoned a rat,

Which danced on his head like a spellbound top hat.

Philomena, graceful, with magic so slick,

Turned frogs into flutes with a casual flick.

Zander declared, “I’ll show her my might!”

Then promptly exploded in blue fairy light.

She giggled and said, “You’re quite the charmer—

But next time, dear Zander, just skip the llama.”

The new hilarious adventures of Zander, the biggest wizarding failure since Merlin's efforts to conjure a meringue pie, but conjured a particularly vicious turkey who ate him out of house and home.
