The New Jewish Wedding by Anita Diamant

Finally, Emperor Kantab's schemes have been thwarted in both Ben's and Mizli's worlds. With relief, the teens settle down to concentrate on their Guardian training as they begin their postgraduate term at the Academy. However, they have barely started the term when they learn that the wily Emperor is hatching an even more sinister plot to regain dominance. This both complicates and accelerates the Academy's already intense advanced training for them, and keeps them too busy to do any sleuthing for clues to what Kantab up to.

When, at last, they get the opportunity to investigate, they daringly try walking through a mysterious portal and find themselves lost in a mind-warping Vortex of Magic. They race through a bewildering time maze to unravel the Emperor's diabolically clever plan prevent him from restoring Feyr's dominance of magic and spreading Feyr's fearful rule over all of Bespri and Earth.
