Wizard Born by Geof Johnson

When Eddan, an ancient sorcerer, is mortally wounded by a bitter rival, he escapes to Earth and gives himself a chance to be reborn as Jamie Sikes. The boy grows up oblivious to his nature, safe and secure in a loving family. Or so he thinks. Jamie is destined to become a sorcerer, and the more Eddan’s memories and power bubble up in Jamie’s consciousness, the more powerful he becomes. But he finds out it’s not all fun and games when he realizes that Eddan’s old enemy is hunting him down. Jamie and everyone he loves are doomed unless Jamie can learn how to use every bit of the ancient magic Eddan instilled in him. He wasn’t just born to become a wizard. He is a wizard born.
