From the Back Cover:

In the magical kingdom of Elundium, dark forces are gathering. Nightbeasts are roaming the forests and the Tunnellers, gentle gardeners of the greenways and keepers of the wildwood, are suddenly under suspicion. Good King Thane finds himself and his family in danger from a terrifying group of rebels calling themselves the Honourable Company of Murderers.

Who would have thought that the safety of the kingdom would lie in the hands of a crippled sweep’s boy? Drib’s destiny will take him from a life of misery through turmoil and peril to the heights of heroism and happiness beyond his wildest dreams.

An enchanting read for fantasy fans of all ages.
