Title: An English Treasure
Review: This book is one of the best books I have read. The style, not depressingly easy to read, portrays perfectly one of the most interesting time periods of Old England. The characters are vivedly portrayed and in this way easily relate to the reader, making the book feel personable.In the tale, a parentless boy, Leo, who lives in an Abbey, is visited by a noble who reveals himself as Leo's grandfather. He is not the only living relative, Leo discovers with resentment. He learns of the relative that killed his father, and after finally settling into a home that permeates love, is torn from that comfort when kidnapped by the murderous relative. Chivalry plays a part, as Leo cannot break his honor, and must never return to his grandfather's castle. The virtues of obedience and humility are appreciated as the characters struggle with pride, resentment, and rebelious passions. A very worthwhile read, if you haven't got good books, you haven't got good influence.
