Wizards and Warriors is a young adult novelization of the video game Wizards and Warriors and was published by Scholastic in January of 1991. It is book number six in the Worlds of Power series, although it is the seventh book in the series. Like all books in the series, it is attributed to "F. X. Nine," though the internal text lists the author as Ellen Miles.
In the book, Matthew ? leaves Earth to join the knight Kuros as his squire on a quest to rescue Princess Miranda and her handmaidens from the evil sorcerer to prevent the destruction of the world.
Personal
I read my first Worlds of Power book, Blaster Master, in the early 1990s, but I didn't read any others until 2007 when, being nostalgic for the story, I ordered several other books from the series. Having never played Wizards and Warriors, this was the last book that I read, and I didn't find it all that enjoyable.
Status
I own a first edition mass market paperback with the card cutout and have read it.
