Publisher Description

The young orphan Crispin and his gentle, red-bearded protector Bear continue their adventures in 14th-century England. Crispin and Bear are finally free to live their lives as they choose. But they soon find that they are being hunted by members of a secret society who believe Bear is a spy. When Bear is severely wounded, Crispin must make some tough decisions, such as deciding who else to trust to help them escape their pursuers. The two make a perilous journey to Brittany-surely the edge of the world! And there they must confront death in order to find true freedom. Avi has written several books of historical fiction for which he has been showered with numerous awards, including the Newbery Medal for Crispin: Cross of Lead. He explores the themes of war, religion, and family in this suspenseful adventure. The superb reading from narrator Ron Keith will enthrall listeners. "This moving, history-packed adventure leaves Crispin on the edge of the world and readers on the edge of their seats. Super storytelling."-Kirkus Reviews

    " This book is just as good or better than the original. It is so beautiful and at moments, you get so into the book that sometimes you feel like you are a part of the characters. I can't wait till the last book in the trilogy comes out! "

    " Can't wait to finish the trilogy. Think I actually enjoyed the 2nd book more than the first because I really liked Troth. She added a new dimension to Crispin. The first book spent a lot of time setting up the story, where this felt like the main course. "
