Growing up an orphan in an isolated cottage in the woods, young Terence
never expected much adventure. But upon the arrival of Gawain, his life
takes a surprising turn. Gawain is destined to become one of the most
famous knights of the Round Table. Terence becomes Gawain's squire and
leaves his secluded life for one of adventure in King Arthur's court. In
no time Terence is plunged into the exciting world of kings, wizards,
knights, wars, magic spells, dwarfs, damsels in distress, and
enchanters. As he adjusts to his new life, he proves to be not only an
able squire but also a keen observer of the absurdities around him. His
duties take him on a quest with Gawain and on a journey of his own, to
solve the mystery of his parentage. Filled with rapier-sharp wit,
jousting jocularity, and chuckleheaded knights, this is King Arthur's
court as never before experienced.
