Sorcerers

"Welcome to the Apprentice Academy. Congratulations on your acceptance to one of the world's finest institutions for sorcery. Your course of study here will be long and perilous, but this book of sorcery skills and fascinating tales from the world of magic will help you along the way - ideally with all your limbs and wits intact. Learn how to: Read minds! Prophesize! Perform a love spell! Choose an animal familiar! Turn anything into gold! Summon demons! Find a lair! ...And more! But most of all learn to cheat, or, rather, to weasel through without actually cheating. Please follow all instructions carefully, as one wrong move can transform your hands into forks or serpents, and then you will have a hard time turning the page"--.
