The three Brother Apprentices have arrived at the College of Sorcerers only to face new challenges and tribulations set upon them by both the senior students and the Faculty.
Hindering their advancement at College are a collection of obstacles including a half-mad Centaur, a Green Goblin, the last living Father of Man, drug-seeking Sprites, sentient warrior statues, the Guardian of the Temple of Time, murderous attacks by Excelsior-Class brigands, Graecolian Slavers, the uncloaked evil of a twisted Master Sorcerer and the Pale Horse of Death.

. Can Rolland prove how the College's cook can claim to have fathered the leader of Fountaindale's Thieve's Guild?
. Can the Daemon's challenge to Thaddeus be answered by his brother Apprentices?

In Louis Sauvain's epic fantasy Book One, Thaddeus of Beewicke, the tortuous and danger-laden journey to the Sorcerer's school is at last completed. In Book Two, Thaddeus and the Master, the young Apprentices at the College of Sorcerers learn first-hand the life-threatening risks of spell-casting, hand-to-hand combat and confrontation with hostile upperclassmen, disdainful Faculty and the deadly presence of the school's Daemon.
Sauvain's strength prevails creating a page-turner of strong and vigorous cast of characters.
The second book in the College of Sorcerers trilogy by Louis Sauvain, Thaddeus and the Master, will draw in fantasy readers with its sense of adventure and mounting mystery. The fantastic elements are unique, and the rich backstory and hints of magical secrets begin to unfold will have readers look forward to traveling in the next book.
