Greetings all!
My name is Andrew D. Barton. I am the author of the new book titled, Sir George, the First Rising. This is the first book in the series, Dragonisheir.
The story follows a young man named George (pulled from the legend of St. George and the Dragon) who is gifted a magical sword from a minotaur. (the symbolism is discussed later throughout the book)
Through a series of events, he goes on a quest to save a princess, along with his friend Sir Gawain (from the Arthurian legend) and a fun, loving, talking horse named Olly who can only say 5 words.
Their road his filled with giants and trolls as the heroes make their way to the ruined city of Camelot, now refered to as Blandervale to mock its former nobility. Throughout the quest they are met with various friends and trials, and eventually we see the character's road to salvation.
One costumer review stated, "This is incredible. It carries a modern Pilgrim's Progress style to it. A must read with my family!"
If you like stories with dragons, giants, knights, talking animals, Scripture, and some farmiliar characters from other legends, you may enjoy this book
