A Wizard's Good Misfortune

Porrello is the only wizard attempting to stop a former colleague from committing a terrible act. But when his two grandchildren come to visit him, their mischievous games get in the way of the critical spell he is concocting.

A slight mishap later, and Porrello’s spell backfires spectacularly. In another time and place, four unfortunate characters are teleported from their world to this magical land: a knight from Medieval England; a warrior-woman from ancient Turkey; a ninja from feudal Japan; and a cocky young cowboy from nineteenth-century California.

The four new arrivals are shocked to hear from Porrello that they have seven days to help him, otherwise the spell that brought them here will run out and their lives will expire with it.
