Young Adult Adventure
Can life get any worse for Dane the Defiant? The same
villagers who once praised him for his courage in defeating
Thidrek the Terrifying now blame him for everything that has
gone wrong since then: The torrential downpours. The
dwindling food supplies. Even the rampant outbreaks of
armpit lice. Dane's deceased father would never have let
things get so bad, the village elders say. But then
Dane is summoned to the fortress of King Eldred, where he
receives the final piece of his father's legacy: an ancient
secret written in mysterious runes that leads to no less
than the treasure of the gods. But the treasure, he learns,
is cursed, and his mother is kidnapped. And so,
braving an army of angry trolls and warring frost giants
(and other fantastic creatures there isn't space here to
describe), Dane and his friends must decipher the cryptic
clues and embark on a quest to find the enchanted treasure
and save her life. Oh, and all the while battling ultimate
evil. Can Dane be the hero he has always wanted to be? Or
will he fall prey to the curse and betray those he loves?
