The central character of the series is a girl named Tara Duncan who discovers that she is a powerful "spellbinder," possessing magic powers. Her adventures begin when she is 12 and take her to the planet OtherWorld and beyond. Magic is present in those worlds, as are evil wizards, giants, "vampyrs," dwarves, elves, sirens, and two-headed business administrators. Tara's companions in her adventures include her fellow Earthling Fabrice and the friends she makes on OtherWorld: a half-elf called Robin M'angil , the licensed thief in training Caliban Dal Salan, a shapeshifting princess Gloria Daavil nicknamed "Sparrow", and a short-tempered but warm-hearted female dwarf named Fafnir. Sophie Audouin-Mamikonian, who is also the author of other series, has so far written ten Tara Duncan volumes in French. William Rodarmor has translated 2 of her books into English. Some of the books have also been translated into Japanese. |
