William Grey is in a lot of trouble. He just doesn’t know it yet.
Raised by monks, he’s never left his village, and couldn’t tell a long sword from a loofah. He thinks magic is just stuff we don’t understand yet, but he’s in for a rude awakening. In a strange twist, William is knighted and sent on a life-altering quest for a magical crystal in faraway Sardonica, an island close to the land of Italica.
But this quest is no straightforward jaunt. As rival witches flex their mystical muscles, William soon discovers that he’s a pawn in a grander scheme orchestrated by Feydor, a eunuch jester with a flair for manipulation. The questions on everyone’s lips: Will he peel back the layers of deception in time to unravel the true meaning of his quest and outwit Feydor? Will he solve the eternal enigma of the two headed cat? Will he gain the love of the mysterious Helena? And will his inaugural quest also be his swan song?
False Tidings is a tale of witches, a jester, a king, a queen, a deadly pet monkey, a matriarchal goblin-like race, a reluctant hero, an evil priesthood, a love affair that ranges over a continent, and a magical crystal.
Readers of this humorous medieval fantasy describe it as “a rich pageant of plotting, intrigue and laughs,” “brings the fun back to the hero’s journey,” “a fascinating take on Don Quixote,” and “a must for Terry Pratchett and Blackadder fans.”
