Book Description E. Godz, Inc.'s stock-in-trade was magic. When Edwina Godz had inherited the family corporation after her parents were killed in an accident, she had put to work all the sorcerous techniques that she had learned during her Spiritual Quest period, taking all the shamans with the Right Stuff on board as subsidiaries, and raking in all the benefits of the material world, including big profits and a high-selling stock. Unfortunately, Edwina's two children, Dov and Peez, hated each other's guts, to put it mildly, and if she stepped aside and let them take over the company, it was certain to go down the tubes. So she pretended to be dying from a disease that neither science nor sorcery could cure, and let the two of them fight it out for dominance using all the tricks of both corporate in-fighting and wizard warfare that she had taught them. No holds barred-and may the most evil and ruthless sorcerer win!
