Synopsis

Deep in the ancient forest that the creatures called the Wild Wood amid the scented bracken and towering beeches, there were whispers of a legend whose ending was lost in the mists of time. It told of a heroic journey and a saviour destined to possess the secret power of the Faradawn. And so it came to pass, in the time of man's great war, that a human child brought the legend to life. Sensing, without knowing why, that it must begin a special, magical guest, he journeyed through the magical kingdoms of the world, his path filled with awesome marvels and strange terrors, his story a celebration of love, courage, and all that is brightest and best in life. Said to be like a combination of *Jungle Book*, *Watership Down*, and *LOTR*, but with a strong anti-hunting theme.
