If you have not heard or read about Adrian Jacob's book, Willy the Wizard (1987), this is a good time to do this. Or you can go to this site.
According to the website, Willy the Wizard is a book about the adventures of a boy wizard, who reminisced about his days in a wizard college and the countless adventures.
The Adventures of Willy the Wizard was published in 1987. Here is one extract:
Willy’s father was not a blacksmith, but the angelsmith of Switzerland, and Willy remembered that as a child all angel repairs were done by his dad Billy, who had a contract with God. It gave him the exclusive monopoly on all angel defects.
One day his dad had handed him a large red book.
‘Here Willy. Angel Pretty left this for you. 'For me, Dad?’
‘Yes, for you.
‘What is it?’
‘I don’t know. He said not to open the clasp.’ ‘Thanks Dad.’
Willy at fourteen was a caring child, an absent-minded dreamer.
That’s how it all began because he had been given the Book of Secrets with
directions as to his initiation into Wizardry.
Adrian James's has since deceased, but the Trustees, Paul Gregory Allen, have brought an action against JK Rowling, claiming that Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, infringes the copyright in Willy the Wizard.
