When a simpleton prince has a vision that his father, the King, turns into military strategy, he is hailed as a seer. But no one realises that his visions are merely poetic retellings of history lessons learned from his timid tutor, who becomes a reckless manipulator of the boy's visions. Magdin soon becomes a helpless pawn in a game of savage political intrigue. When his prophecies become more and more ominous, no one is safe as desperation and murder thunders throughout the kingdom.

A story of celebration with the characters of Hazel Village.

Dear Reader, I really feel these stories were given to me. The characters seemed to appear in my thoughts at quiet times and I wondered about them and allowed my imagination to pursue them. Sometimes at night when I couldn't sleep I'd listen to my mind to see what was happening to them. I was really curious. I followed one story at a time. The stories had beginning and endings and I began to type them on my computer because they seemed so complete. I wanted them printed so my grandchildren could read them. Then I wondered if they were given to me to be shared with others to enjoy. I liked the characters and I hope you will, too. Sincerely, Kate
