Dit is met recht een jeugd klassieker! En dus ook zeer vermakelijk voor een volwassene om te lezen. 

Het avontuur van Tiuri, hoe hij vertrouwt op zijn intuïtie, hoe hij vrienden maakt en zijn woord houdt... Een heus epos! 

Het maakt dat ik op vakantie wil naar de bergen, met beekjes en kastelen om te bezoeken. Op naar het avontuur!

Lovely fairytale - like quest, written post Lord of the Rings and therefore taking some of its flavour from it, but wonderfully simple, richly coloured and quietly entertaining. A tale of a young squire about to become a knight who has to carry a secret message across the mountains to the kingdom in the west, it's story is old fashioned and wholesome and very satisfying. So much so that when my son read on ahead, I had to pick it up after him and finish it myself!

I wish I was not limited by 5 stars because it deserves so much more.
An epic fantasy read, amazing characters, a well-developed storyline and put that all together and *chef's kiss*. Definitely a worthwhile read. Gonna get the sequel soon and cannot wait!

Honestly surprised to see it's a children's book, but a 490 page book at that. I guess Dutch education is superior like that
