What
do an old wooden box, a jeweled pendant and some mysterious,
green-garbed strangers share in common? When Rolin
son of Gannon sets out to solve this riddle, his adventures
take him worlds beyond the walls of his little log cabin.
With the help of some grumpy griffins
and a long-lost prophecy,
Rolin and his friends battle a sorcerer and his underworld
army; deadly snake-trees; dragons and other mythical
creatures. On their perilous quest for the fabled
Isle of Luralin, they must
trust the King with their very lives. In the end,
they learn that "The greatest help oft comes in harm's
disguise to those with trusting hearts and open eyes."
The King of the Trees will enchant readers of
all ages, especially those who love trees and the Tree-Maker.
