About this listen
Nominated for both the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award, this short story introduces the Warlock, who discovers to his horror that the world's mana, the fuel that makes magic work, is rapidly dwindling. The news spells doom for magic-based society. Unfortunately, no secret that powerful can stay hidden for long.

Wizard versus Warrior
I’ve never thought of Larry Niven as a fantasy writer, but in this quick tale he shows what he can do with the genre as a classic wizard versus warrior confrontation blossoms. It’s lots of fun.

Good but not great. Niven is a great writer but like all short stories his endings should be much better.

Cleanly told
The main tale is a cleanly told story with a Twilight zone worthy ending. The second story is a classic that will greatly amuse any swords and sorcery fan.
