Summary "The Wizard's Cave" by Eglanton Thorne is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The book revolves around the escapades of two young brothers, Duke and Noel Bryden, as they embark on a thrilling journey filled with exploration and danger in a picturesque Cornish setting.
