The Wizard Of The Mountain

ByDavid Trutt

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Willam Gilbert was the father of W. S. Gilbert (Gilbert & Sullivan operas). Retired from the Royal Navy, the father decided to begin a career as an author after noting the success of his son. The Wizard Of The Mountain, written in 1867, is a series of tales linked together by the doings of the Innominato (Nameless; having no name). The Innominato lived in late fourteenth century Italy, and was a mysterious wizard who possessed magical powers. The Innominato is the master of his own castle and is well respected and feared by all those in the area. The local nobles are wary of him, and the local peasants and burghers come to him for advice and help. His powers are never enumerated, but they seem to include clairvoyance, prophecy, and various magical arts. There are eleven tales that make up The Wizard Of The Mountain. The last tale is of the Innominate himself and how he came to be.
