The Wolf of Tebron

By C. S. Lakin

Description:

Joran dreams of living a simple life as a blacksmith in his forested village of Tebron. But when his wife, Charris, disappears in a whisk of magic, his dream shatters as he is forced to go on a perilous journey to the ends of the world to rescue her. The goose woman tells him he must solve the riddle of the three keys, and will wear out three pairs of shoes before he battles the Moon—who has trapped Charris in a sand castle perched above the sea.
 
Dismayed and fearful, Joran sets out alone, but along the way finds unlikely companionship in a wolf named Ruyah, who becomes his guide and trusted friend. In true fairy-tale tradition, Joran must face daunting challenges—within and without—in order to bring Charris safely home.
 

Book Takeaway:

That God is with you every step of the way on your journey, and that just as he has dreamed us all up, he puts in us a dream to seek and find.

Why the author wrote this book:

To write a fairy tale that portrayed God, redemption, and salvation in the traditional style of C. S. Lewis.
