Jeld's fight to survive brings together a diverse band of companions and begins his journey from the cold streets to the spired royal palace. Along the way, he will unlock the magic of a lost world, untangle the secrets of the missing Idols, and find love in the most unlikely of places as his blade inches ever closer to the prince.
But alas, not even hatred can be so simple. Old enemies and new allies are not all they seem. Finding himself at the center of a plot to tear apart the realm, Jeld must choose between revenge and fighting for the very kingdom he owes no favors.
Fans of Patrick Rothfuss's Name of the Wind, Robin Hobb's Assassin's Apprentice, and David Eddings's classic Pawn of Prophecy will quickly fall into Jeld's tale. Dreamer's Folly explores love, loss, and vengeance in a fantasy adventure with characters so real it doesn't feel so far from home. Adult and YA readers alike will enjoy this fast-paced coming of age fantasy adventure.
There is no greater killer of men than the pursuit of dreams, and no more agonizing death than that of a man who ignores them.
