- Origins
- This is a story that every child would have heard a version of at their hearthside over 2000 years ago. It is the story of the spring's sun over winter. This is a contemporary version for this generation to enjoy.
- Synopsis
- Jack has been training for three years for something and just near the end of his training he is woken in the middle of the night. Then he with his brothers Haw and Rowan are sent on a pointless epic journey without provisions and told not to steal. As they progress Jack's companions grow disillusioned with Jack. Will Jack come up to the mark? What and where are they really going.

BeCloud““Oh, the beaver thing. It’s the perfect disguise for a secret agent, an all-weather wet suit, low water profile, and great teeth for felling trees to block roads.”” -
Embarr, the king of the houyhnhnms“Embarr whinnied. “Hum, humans – superior! That’s ridiculous. Of course I can speak. I’ve a much better vocabulary than any mere ape. We were the superior species on Earth when you lot were in the trees.”” -
Jack to Rowan“Jack stared. “I know what you mean – the security police will come to collect people if they don’t report tonight?”” -
Ellie Jack's sister““I mean you live in grass huts in the Underworld. You need to take your clothes off to wash.””
