Lyndon Hardy: Difference between revisions

* [[Freaky Friday Flip]]: Happens to the male heroes of ''Riddle of the Seven Realms'', as a side effect of a time/space-warping magical weapon. Unusual in that it's done neither for social commentary nor comedy; rather, it gives the djinn hero a chance to experience life as a human, and vice versa.

* [[Gotta Catch Them All]]: The protagonist of ''Master of the Five Magics'' learns the use of his world's five known types of magic over the course of the novel, and needs to use all five in combination to win in the end.

* [[The Magic Goes Away]]: Subverted in ''Secret of the Sixth Magic'', in which it seems that the five known forms of magic are ceasing to operate. It turns out that they aren't vanishing; rather, a "metamagician" from another world is shifting the rules under which they operate, forcing magic-users to rediscover how to invoke their powers.

* [[Mind Manipulation]]: Sorcery, the fourth magic, involves mind manipulation in its many forms and applications.
