While working as a stable boy, he unexpectedly pulls a mysterious sword from a stone—something no knight or nobleman had managed before. From that moment, his fate is sealed: guided by the wizard Merlin, he must face challenges, earn loyalty, and discover what it truly means to be king.

A legendary tale from Arthurian myth retold for children aged 7+.

Author

Tommaso Percivale

Born in Ovada in 1977, Tommaso Percivale is an author of children's books. He lives and writes on an isolated hilltop surrounded by rocks, wind, woods and roe deer. Passionate about stories, sleight of hand, comics and games, he is a curious writer and, as such, tackles various genres, ranging from historical fiction to science fiction, from adventures to thrillers, even touching on the field of non-fiction. He writes to excite and stimulate deep reflections of an ethical, philosophical and social nature. Freedom, courage and rebellion are the themes he holds most dear.
