This book was about Sir Quinlan and his journey to find himself and the Prince. In his hometown of Burkfeild Quinlan is known by Twitch because he often will twitch the muscles on his face. Quinlan's parents died nine years before the story and his best friend Tav's family took him in. Burkfeild is a peaceful isolated town with a rather large haven established just inside. Paythas are introduced to the town (sent by Lucius who is the the dark knight) and they begin to infiltrate the haven.

This was a really good book and I can not wait until I read another one. You do need to read the fourth book,
Lady Carliss and The Waters Of Moorue, before reading this book because some of the events from that book are discussed at the beginning of this book.
I would recommend this book to somewhere beginning around third or fourth grade and up. Nothing in this book would cause parents to be upset or worried. I recommend this for parents who would like a series of books to read with their children that teach a good lesson. I think reading these books (or parts of them if you are short on time) during Sunday School would be interesting as well.
This book is obviously a Christian book but it has such an interesting way of telling the story I think even roudy school boys would be able to sit still long enough to hear the story.
I think that everyone needs to get this series RIGHT NOW!!! :)
