the famous and rather grim ranger Halt after being rejected from battle school, the one thing he

had always wanted in life. This is a result of believing that his father had died as a knight and

about a story - a fairy tale told to a young boy by his father. Of course,

in. The reader is left with a tale of swordplay, true love, evil men,

escape from death, and plenty of humor. The story starts with a young
