(2) 4-6 Runaway Nick Reynaud seeks shelter at Evil Wizard Books in Smallbone Cove, Maine. Proprietor Zachariah Smallbone declares that Nick will be his new apprentice and turns Nick into a spider when he disagrees. Back in human form, Nick searches the bookstore to learn enough magic to protect himself. Meanwhile, something strange is going on in town... Well-timed revelations feed the mystery, and all is satisfyingly resolved.
