When Rolin son of Gannon sets out to solve this riddle, his adventures take him worlds beyound the walls of his little log cabin.

On their perilous quest for the blessed 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.' Recommended for ages 10 and up.
