Description

Two teen wizards embark on an alien exchange program in this “hilarious and scary” adventure from the author of A Wizard Alone (Booklist).
 
Rest and relaxation—that’s what Nita Callahan thinks she’s going to get when she and her partner-wizard Kit Rodriguez go on a “cultural exchange” program. But nothing about wizardry—not even vacation—is ever quite that simple! Number one: They’re headed to a planet that may be just a bit too perfect. Number two: Nita’s sister Dairine must host a trio of alien guests here on Earth. Number three: The culture clashes that ensue could have devastating consequences—for both planets!
 
Praise for the Young Wizards series
 
“Duane is tops in the high adventure business . . . This rollicking yarn will delight readers.”—Publishers Weekly
High Wizardry is . . . high entertainment.”—Locus
 
“Recommend this series to young teens who devour books about magic and wizards . . . or kids looking for ‘Harry Potter’ read-alikes.”—School Library Journal
 
“Stands between the works of Diana Wynne Jones . . . and Madeleine L’Engle . . . An outstanding, original work.”—The Horn Book
