Description

A medieval adventure from bestselling author Adam Gidwitz. Beautifully illustrated throughout by Hatem Aly. In 1242, three young travellers cross paths at an inn and begin to tell stories of their adventures. Their tales take them on a chase through France, where they are taken captive by knights, sit alongside a king, and save the land from a farting dragon. With the help of their loyal companions, including a greyhound recently brought back from the dead, they embark on a quest to escape prejudice and persecution. As they journey towards a final showdown at Mont Saint-Michel, their stories come together in a saga of unlikely allies. Told in multiple voices, this medieval adventure is reminiscent of The Canterbury Tales.
