Rolin and his father, Gannon, live a quiet life in their log cabin set in a mountainside forest. Rolin's mother has died, leaving father and son to manage life on their own. Their lives are spent as beekeepers, providing for their own needs as well as supplying their local village. On one such trip to sell their products, Rolin is accosted for the pendant he is wearing - an unexpected find from a forgotten old box in their dusty cellar - heritage from his mother and grandmother.
Rolin's real life adventures begin from there, taking us along with him to mythological lands and meeting fantastical creatures of other worlds. Rolin meets and makes new friends who aid in the understanding of an ancient prophecy, battle of a fiendish foe and his evil army, and journey to the Isle of Luralin to discover the Tree of Life and the King of Trees who cares about them every step of the journey ~ including their newly found 'wings' of flight!
I enjoyed getting to know the characters. the glossary included at the end of the book was invaluable in helping identify unfamiliar names and meanings for this unique world of our young protagonist.
Definitely a recommended read! Thank you for writing and sharing your imaginative worlds with us, Bill! It was certainly an enjoyable summer armchair adventure!
