Maugis, ye sorcerer by Lord Gilhooley

A wonderful and eccentric tale of the sorcerer Maugis, drawn (with tongue firmly in cheek) from the writings of a mad savant of old France.

First published 1898 1890s English Fantasy

Lord Gilhooley's 1898 fantasy is a whimsical, satirical mock-medieval tale of magic and wizardry. Playful, ironic, of its era. Read it for a droll turn-of-the-century fantasy that spoofs both sorcery and scholarship with genial absurdity.
