Fuzbud and the Wizard — N.J.W. Mitchell

Fuzbud was tired of herding goats. He jumped at the chance to spend the summer at the castle in Milara with Princess Nightshade and Hannah War-Daughter. None of them realized their small world was changing and their peaceful times were in danger. Who could have guessed they'd get caught up in a war? Fuzbud, who thought his adventures were already done, would never have believed he'd get tossed into a dragons' den. He never thought he could be hurt so badly trying to protect a friend. And never in his wildest dreams did he think an unlikely, bumbling, old wizard could change his life forever.
