In this compelling fantasy from cult favorite David Clement-Davies, a boy learns his fate is caught up with that of a king. When Rhodri Falcon has his fortune told at the village fair, he learns about the Telling Pool, a mystical spring in the heart of the forest that shows great secrets of the past, present, and future. What he glimpses in the pool will set him on a quest to free his father from the grip of an enchantress and to save his country from an old curse, dating back to the time of King Arthur.
Expertly told, The Telling Pool transports young readers to the days of the Crusades, a time of conflict that mirrors our own.
