   Additional Information  
 
  In the first of the Estorian Chronicles fantasy trilogy, twelve year-old Dominique fails to complete a deadly serious ritual and is banished from his place with the Estorian people, a tribe of nomadic storytellers. He must travel alone to a distant cave where, it is believed, he will find the voice he has always longed for. His quest takes him to far-off lands where he must do battle with a mighty river serpent, outwit pungent yagabonos, and survive capture by a group of powerful leranons.

Inspired by the creatures and legends of a variety of mythologies, Nikki Tate has created a world where there is no greater honour - and no greater challenge - than being a magnificent storyteller.
