Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"The Gift" is an exploration of the art of storytelling, a coming-of-age tale in a place and time when magic is not the ring to be grabbed but the poison to be shunned. It is the tale of a boy named Tim, who is robbed of his childhood, and a young king named Simon, who is tormented by his hearing being made magically acute. Both are the victims of The Usher of the Night.

Synopsis:

The Gift is an exploration of the art of storytelling, a coming-of-age tale in a place and time when magic is not the ring to be grabbed but the poison to be shunned. This Gift is one that will be opened, read, and treasured for a long time to come.
