Μᾶρκος ὁ Μάγος (Markos ho Magos): A Greek Novella

Markos likes being a young Roman mage, but such a conspicuous combination presents problems in Egypt after he and his parents relocate from Rome.

Despite generously offering his magical talents to others, this young mage feels like an outsider, sometimes wishing he were invisible. Have you ever felt that way?

Markos searches Egypt for a place to be openly accepted, and even has a run-in with the famously fiendish Sphinx! Can Markos escape unscathed?

In this novella, John Foulk has translated and adapted Lance Piantaggini’s Latin Novella, Marcus Magulus, into Koine Greek for beginner-level Greek language learners of all ages.
