In this start to a hilarious middle grade fantasy trilogy, Max Spencer discovers that he could be a powerful wizardand a killer unicorn is hunting him.
It wasnt Max Spencers idea to fight robots, lead an army, or save the worldit just so happens that hes the only living person who can read the most fantastical book ever written: The Codex of Infinite Knowability. The Codex is no ordinary book, and among other things, it describes a unicorn named Princess the Destroyer.
Princess the Destroyer is not an average unicorn. She loves nothing more than hunting down, killing, and eating other creatures. After all, whats the point of having a sharp horn on your forehead if you dont use it for destructive purposes And right now Princess has a very definite purpose: Find Max and retrieve the lost Codex for an evil sorcerer and his mysterious master. If she can do that, shes been promised an all-the-humans-you-can-eat buffet in Texas.
Stuck in another world and with a carnivorous unicorn on his trail, Max must find the courage to save himself, his friends, and, oh yeahthe entire human race.
Platte Clark shares his first name with the midwestern Platte River, which hes been told means wide and shallow. He nonetheless graduated cum laude with a BS in Philosophy and an MS in English, and lives with his wife and seven children in American Fork, Utah.
