The problem? Bentley Ellicott is only a kid.
Bentley has secret powers. And he's going to need them. Bentley is a hero - the thousand and first to be exact - in a long line of heroes that has stretched all the way back to antiquity. Heroes like Arthur and Hercules.
And now: Bentley.
That's because there is an evil in the world that never dies. Its name is Prnce Ombra. When Prince Ombra arises a hero is called upon to battle him. One day when Bentley is grown he will be that hero.
What Bentley doesn't know is that his "one day" is today.

Reviews
Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.
In the vein of works by Tolkien and Terry Brooks, Prince Ombra is a basic fantasy of good vs. evil. Its twist is that the champion of good is a crippled eight-year-old boy. LJ's reviewer found that the author "combines the measured phrase of legends with the chaos of modern life in fascinating juxtaposition" (LJ 11/15/82).
