Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

It is the sixth century in Aksum, Africa. Young TelemakosKing Arthur's half-Ethiopian grandsonis still recovering from his ordeal as a government spy in the far desert, trying to learn who was breaking the Emperor's plague quarantine. Before he is fully himself again, tragedy and menace strike, and he finds himself sent, with his baby sister, Athena, to live with Abreha, the ruler of Himyara longtime enemy of the Aksumites, now perhaps a friend. His aunt Goewin, Arthur's daughter, warns him that Abreha is a man to be wary of, someone to watch carefully. Telemakos promises he will be mindfulbut he does not realize that Goewin's warnings are not enough to protect him.

The Sunbird ("Intense, absorbing, and luminously written," Kirkus Reviews, starred review) was the first book about Telemakos. The Lion Hunter continues his story, to be quickly followed by The Empty Kingdoma two-book sequence called The Mark of Solomon.
