Of Nature and Kings

Of Nature and Kings is a fantastical tale aimed primarily at readers ages 8-12 but meant to be equally as well enjoyed by gray-bearded men in porch rockers.It is a tale of boring towns snow that comes on schedule every year and old leather books that may not be as fictional as some people assume. There is a story concerning the world of Londane that never should have been told but it was--and Lacter Tibbak heard it. And its a good thing he did.Lacter Tibbak is twelve and bored to death with his life. But upon an afternoon his fathers friend entertains him with a story and that story turns out to be a briefing for the quandary that Lacters family will shortly be swept into. The Tibbak bloodline calls from an unexpected place--indeed a place no one knows about at all......Except the people whom Lacter has always trusted the most. Lacters journey to learn who he really is takes him and his family across the Noctial Sea to a place known only to his father and their closest friends. But even Lacters father doesnt know what theyre going to face when they get there.Of Nature and Kings deals with Christian family values and a strong anti-sorcery theme runs throughout the tale--not painting sorcery and magic as myths from which we have nothing to fear but rather as real evil with destructive consequences. There is also an undercurrent of providence described by one character as being Father Aboves destiny for me. This timeless story of purpose calling and reconciliation makes a great family read-aloud!Critical Praise for the AuthorI truly believe she will be recognized by the writing and publishing world as a bright new talent. - Dr. Bart Dahmer (Founder Innovo Publishing)I am in love with her work.
