When his father completes a suit of golden armour for the King of the Fairies, he entrusts Spiggot to deliver it post haste. Thus Spiggot embarks on his journey through Liofwende, a Mediaeval Britain parallel to modern days with Kling, a large dog-sized water rat, as his only companion. They are soon joined by Jack, a baffled teenager who has crashed his motorbike in Mortaland - our world - and finds himself waking up in Liofwende. Jack is chagrined to find himself at the bottom of the class system, further down even than the rat. Before long, Spiggot is tempted into the armour himself to do battle with a deathless serpent. And he finds the heroic life to his liking! Cue more escapades .... enough misadventure in fact to fill several books. 'Spiggot's Quest' is peppered with all those wonderful mythical creatures that 'once' inhabited the British Isles, brought back to life with good humour and humanity. The pace is breathless and the pages abound with magic and unforgettable imagery. 'Spiggot's Quest' however goes back further, to the roots of British folklore. It is an eminently readable book, a real feel-good book that places you smack bang in a where you can almost smell the fungi and leaf litter. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Faerieland. It's like a reflection of your world ... a warped reflection. And Jack has just stumbled right into it - with a whole lot of trouble on his tail. Trolls, goblins, ogres and giants ... all after one thing. But Jack's got no clue what. He needs some allies, like now. A wizard maybe. Or a High Fairy. Someone who can do serious magic. Someone who can help him get home. Anyone. Just not a dreamy young boggart named Spiggot... The Knights of Leofwende continues with: 2. Mallmoc's Castle (July '03) and Boggart and Fen (July '04) Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
