Tam's Tale

 

“Tam’s Tale was great I couldn’t stop reading it!  Illustrations lovely and lots of them to visualize places and character. Happy ending that wasn’t scary or soppy!” 
— Barbara C.

Tam grows up in a remote hamlet, dreaming of escape across swamps, forests, and mountain passes to reach the famed city of Colonia. When at seventeen he sets out, his adventure yields more than he bargained for: a mysterious golden eye, a treacherous sea serpent, and an encounter with a young woman of royal blood living rough in a mountain hideaway. She is Queen Kristina — determined, dispossessed, and fighting to reclaim a throne seized by a savage tyrant. What begins as an unlikely alliance becomes a dangerous quest to overthrow a ruler who has turned justice into a distant memory — and to fulfill a prophecy neither of them fully understands.
