Yorda was used to excelling. He could run faster than anyone his age, his senses were more acute than those of anyone he knew - he could even communicate with animals. And he had unique talents as a healer. So it was no surprise when he proved capable of curing 'voicekill', the illness that had sprung up among local children. Little did he know that by healing their fevers he was walking into a trap - and a trap that was intended to be deadly. So begins an adventure that leads Yorda to the Kingdom of the Elves where he will learn where he came from, who he is and the perilous tasks expected of him through the Prophecy. On the way he will meet with two stalwart companions - the wise elf Mertok and the courageous soldier Dawson - be pursued by murderous trackers sent by the Black Elf, and encounter fairies, a unicorn and a mystical Spellweaver. The Prophecy is book one in the Yorda's Story trilogy. An evocative and exciting fantasy novel, it conjures up a world half familiar, half magical, in which the age-old struggle between good and evil comes to a head in an epic battle.
