The Forest- Book I of Menchian Journeys

By Susan Prudhomme

Description:

In the mythical world of The Forest, Menchians' lives are well-ordered and secure, but Timkin, in very un-Menchianlike fashion, dreams of adventure and "something more." One day, he is swept away from all he knows, called by the One into a great Journey guided by the raven Parcaw and Shenda, a wise she-wolf. In his adventures among the Forest's waterfalls, rivers, meadows and mountains, he experiences friendship, betrayal, self-sacrifice and forgiveness, eventually entering the very Abode of the One.

Book Takeaway:

A deep sense of the beauty and wonder of Creation, and encouragement in the spiritual journey.

Why the author wrote this book:

I believe that each of us has a deep need to feel the wonder and reverence that are natural to children, and that the cares of adulthood tend to cloak. The Forest is written to draw the reader into an imaginary world of beauty and adventure - and spiritual depth.
