"The Tempest” sorcerer (8)
I believe the answer is:
prospero
'the tempest sorcerer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for prospero that I've seen before include "Sorcerer of The Tempest" , "Miranda's father (Tempest)" , "Shakespearean role" , "Exiled king" , "Usurped Duke of Milan (The Tempest)" .)
