“Never turn your back on a dragon.” When he sets out to find a cure for his father, Taliesin didn’t expect to need advice on how to handle dragons. But then he didn’t expect to have to fight wolves or creatures of the forest either. "They're not our problem" If he'd paid attention to his friend John's advice he wouldn't have found himself on the run with a fugitive from a powerful Norman baron. “Keep to the road” If only he’d taken that advice he'd have had a few uneventful days away with John with nothing to show for it but sore feet. Instead he found himself dealing with bandits and unpredictable warlords. But then, if he'd taken all the advice he was given he wouldn't have found out that he wasn't just any ordinary eleven year old boy and learnt to see the world from a whole new perspective.
