As an apprentice sorcerer, you should never steal your master's identity. But what if that's the only way to save the kingdom?

Will your powers save the cursed king--or will you turn traitor and seize the throne yourself? You can probably break a simple kindness curse, but there are dark forces are at work and you may be in over your head before you can say "Abracadabra."
Throw in your lot with scheming councilors, the attractive heir, or even go to work for the invaders. But whether you choose to save the king or your own neck, one thing is clear--this is your big chance!
Magic, power, or true love--which will you choose? In "Sorcery Is for Saps," you'll find it's easier than waving a wand.
