The Legend of the Golden Heart

Today is Prince Owen’s KING’S DAY: the day when a qualified prince can take the royal final exam to earn the right to be called king. However, when Owen realizes he has to overcome impossible obstacles, face-off with dangerous creatures, and solve complex puzzles (all while toting around his persnickety sister Cherry Blossom), he would rather stay in and go back to sleep.

Little does he know just how very interesting this one day will prove to be, and just how far the test will push his limits. For nothing is ever as it seems, especially in a land molded by dreams. Will he succeed as he journeys beyond Heartland’s border and into The Unknown, all the while facing dreadful dangers in a race against time? Or will he be overtaken by the hardships life imposes on a young man stepping into adulthood? With the help of three close companions by his side—he just might.

Common English idioms and sayings, along with the dreams of dreamers, come to life in this thrilling coming of age adventure of four companions who must rely on each other for strength to carry them through to the end. What end may that be? Only time will tell.

A full-length novel with 17 beautiful hand drawn illustrations, and a story sure to touch the hearts of readers of any age.
