Summary: 5 Stars
A Guide to Wizards of the World: Being a True Account of Wizards in the Known World is a recent addition to the beautifully illustrated "Wizardology" series of documentary-style picturebooks for fantasy readers of all ages. As if narrated by Master Merlin himself, A Guide to Wizards of the World introduces readers to an eclectic variety of different masters of wizarding styles, from the South and North American Shamans to Indian Fakirs, Arabian Sages, Eastern Masters, Lapp and African Shamans, and Wizards of the West. Each wizard type's strengths and weaknesses, distinguishing characteristics, and preferred familiars are also discussed. The heart of A Guide to Wizards of the World lies in its stunning black-and-white and color illustrations, and its charmingly archaic Renaissance-style presentation. A simple accompanying card game rounds out this affordable yet high-quality addition to the casual browsing shelves of fantasy lovers everywhere. Also highly recommended for pleasurable leisure reading are the other volumes in the series, including "Wizardology", "Dragonology", and "Egyptology".
