When Nyneve casts her spell to take over the world, she overestimates her own power, and she underestimates the forces out to stop her. She must contend with elves, Chinese dragons, extraterrestrials, the U.S. armed forces, and armies of chickens inspired by a Mesoamerican god, not to mention the reincarnation of Merlin the Magician. But two young sisters who set out to save their father turn out to be key to Nyneve's rise and fall.
