The Letter for the King

The Letter for the King

By Tonke Dragt

So it turns out that there was a letter, and there was a king. Three feudal kingdoms, complete with knights and all that: EVIELLAN, DAGONAUT, and UNAUWEN. They are the kingdoms in the book, and Eviellan, as you can see from the spelling, is evil. Or at least, it is ruled by evil humans. Tiuri, a native of The Kingdom of Dagonaut, named after the ruler, King Dagonaut, is going to be a knight. Wow. Knights have cool armor, don't they. But first, he must reflect upon the duties of a knight, but his concentration is broken by a mysterious person banging on the door and asking to be let in. The human is a squire, and he tells Tiuri to deliver a strange and scary letter to a knight, one with a white shield and black armor. The knight then tasks Tiuri with an arduous task, to deliver a letter all the way to Unauwen, before dying a horrible death because some Red Riders, horsemen from Eviellan wearing red armor have mortally wounded him. "My feet are going to be tired." Tiuri thinks, and then he takes the man's black horse, which he gifted to him, and rides on. A quest has begun, it seems. So, I shall now rate this book. Laura Watkinson did a great job translating the book. (It was originally in Dutch.) The book has an old-fashioned style, so some readers may not want to read it maybe. The descriptions are nice, and it is filled with action in most parts. However, the book was not very deep; there was character development, but they could have more character. Overall, people who wish to read classics and/or fantasy will like this book

I had the opportunity to receive this book through a DOGOBooks giveaway. I was so excited to learn about one of my favorite animals and get to quiz myself on my dog knowledge! And when I got the book...it definitely did not disappoint!! Rich in fun details about dogs and personality quizzes scattered throughout the book, this book turned out to be a dog-lover's dream!! From tongue-twisters to riddles to a fun dog treat recipe, you and your pooch are sure to enjoy this! I love every bit of this book. Every question you may have about dogs is answered like "What dogs are good for locating people trapped in the snow?" and "Can puppies identify themselves in the mirror?" I would highly suggest this book if you love dogs and learning new facts! Happy reading!
