From the Publisher:
Drawn from the real world into a magical realm of seven worlds, a teenager finds himself in the body of a mature warrior of heroic proportions and embarks on a perilous quest to find his destined sword and become a knight, encountering romance, danger, magic, and adventure along the way, in the first volume of a new fantasy series. |
Annotation:
A modern-day teenager is spirited away from Earth to a magical realm where an elf queen gives him the body of a muscled hero. Now calling himself Sir Able of the High Heart, the young man journeys to a dragon's lair in search of both the sword and the self-knowledge that will complete his transformation into a true knight. Wolfe's dense, richly imagined prose transcends clich and makes fresh what might, in other hands, be a traditional quest novel.
