In the land of Maldos, the birth of the fraternal twins Bernum and Malkia was considered as a sign of perfection. Perfectly balanced. Yin and yang. But the birth of their deformed younger brother, Dennik, and the death of their mother was considered the ultimate of curses and the child was regarded as a demon by all except for his father, brother, and sister. The twins vow to learn magic to find a cure for Dennik--but in Maldos the equality of yin and yang is a facade. Only boys are allowed to openly study magic--so while Bernum goes off to the magic school Malkia must secretly study under a witch posing as a midwife. All goes well until Malkia's letters cease--and Bernum must find out what has happend to her. For what can harm a witch can just as easily harm a magician. [more]

We Were About Preparing a Few Words Of Introduction To This Volume, The Materials For Which Have Been Culled from The Highways And Byways Of Literature, Where Our Eyes Fell Upon These Fitting Sentiments, The Authorship Of Which We Are Unable To Give. They Express Clearly And Beautifully What Was In our Own Mind:-- "If We Would Only Bring ourselves To Look At The Subjects That Surround As In their True Flight, We Should See Beauty Where Now Appears Deformity, And Listen To Harmony Where We Hear Nothing but Discord.

Shewing The Wholesome Uses Drawn From Recording The Achievements Of Those Wonderful Productions Of Nature Called Great Men. As It Is Necessary That All Great And Surprising Events, The Designs Of Which Are Laid, Conducted, And Brought To Perfection By The Utmost Force Of Human Invention And Art, Should Be Produced By Great And Eminent Men, So The Lives Of Such May Be Justly And Properly Styled The Quintessence Of History. In These, When Delivered To Us By Sensible Writers, We Are Not Only Most Agreeably Entertained, But Most Usefully Instructed; For, Besides The Attaining Hence A Consummate Knowledge Of Human Nature In General; Of Its Secret Springs, Various Windings, And Perplexed Mazes; We Have Here Before Our Eyes Lively Examples Of Whatever Is Amiable Or Detestable, Worthy Of Admiration Or Abhorrence, And Are Consequently Taught, In A Manner Infinitely More Effectual Than By Precept, What We Are Eagerly To Imitate Or Carefully To Avoid. But Besides The Two Obvious Advantages Of Surveying, As It Were In A Picture, The True Beauty Of Virtue And Deformity Of Vice, We May Moreover Learn From Plutarch, Nepos, Suetonius, And Other Biographers, This Useful Lesson, Not Too Hastily, Nor In The Gross, To Bestow Either Our Praise Or Censure; Since We Shall Often Find Such A Mixture Of Good And Evil In The Same Character That It May Require A Very Accurate Judgment And A Very Elaborate Inquiry To Determine On Which Side The Balance Turns, For Though We Sometimes Meet With An Aristides Or A Brutus, A Lysander Or A Nero, Yet Far The Greater Number Are Of The Mixt Kind, Neither Totally Good Nor Bad; Their Greatest Virtues Being Obscured And Allayed By Their Vices, And Those Again Softened And Coloured Over By Their Virtues.
