<br/><br/> Written for young fantasy lovers who can't yet tackle Lloyd  Alexander's The Chronicles of Prydain or Susan Cooper's The Dark Is Rising  series on their own, The Forging of the Blade introduces Kenric, who stumbles  into danger when he goes in search of his missing father. The evil Lord Mordig  has been capturing blacksmiths--including Kenric's father--to forge the  legendary sword that will ensure his dominion. Kenric's courage takes him to  Mordig's fortress to challenge the dark lord himself. Reassuringly concise and  brimming with spine-tingling adventure, the Lowthar's Blade Trilogy leads young  readers straight to the heart of high fantasy, preparing them for the classic  works of the genre.
