Description
When his father died, Tor had no intention of taking over the throne so initially refused to take part in the quest. However, when the opportunity presented itself to help a friend, he reluctantly agreed to compete against his brothers. When he gathered a team to help him, and collected new friends and old along the way, little did he know the dangers they would all be facing. The clues they have to solve are not easy and the challenges they have to overcome seem almost impossible at times, but teamwork and friendship keep them going forwards. When asked to commit murder, Tor tries to refuse and almost quits when a friend has to walk into fire in order for the team to continue on the quest, but it is the death of one of them that makes him question whether the quest is worth the sacrifices he and his friends are forced to make. When the issues one of his team has with the ruler of another country causes problems for everyone, Tor begins to doubt the wisdom of travelling with friends instead of hired mercenaries, until he finds out the hard way just how uncontrollable 'thugs for hire' can be. Tor's Quest is a 5 part series, starting with The Guide then The Maze, The Bard, The Pendant and The Assassin. This prequel tells the tale of how it all began.
