Synopsis:
As young Dirk endures the cruel occupation of the alien Tsurani, his only hope is to one day win the heart of Lord Paul’s lovely daughter, Anika. This singular thought guides him through his grueling days of slavery. With new winter, comes a shocking mass murder at Lord Paul’s estate. Not only has a traitor slaughtered the household, but also plundered the manor’s gold and kidnapped young Anika. As the sole survivor, Dirk is forced to summon his courage and his cunning to escape his Tsurani masters, find the woman who holds the key to his heart and bring the murderer to justice.
Special Notes:
The Wood Boy is an exciting tale of courage and uncertainty - the sort of story one would expect from an author who is often said to be second only to Tolkien.
Bestselling author Raymond E. Feist created the world of Midkemia over twenty years ago, sustaining it through the epic Riftwar Saga and the later Serpentwar Saga with multiple generations of characters and intense, enjoyable storytelling. Now, new readers and fans alike can return to the early days of the Riftwar with The Wood Boy, a short story that explores the life of a common servant during the invasion of the Tsurani.
