Sir Bentley and Holbrook Court

An Honorable Knight Learns That True Riches Are Found in Serving Others

Sir Bentley was an honorable young knight who had everything—until he abandoned his calling to seek the truth of the Prince. Choosing to live as the Prince did, he forsakes his wealth and lifestyle to live as a pauper. His travels lead him to Holbrook, where the townsfolk live in poverty, burdened by high taxes that support the lavish lifestyle of Lord Kingsley and his court.

There Bentley befriends Eirwyn, a mysterious yet compassionate young woman who distributes food among the poor. When Eirwyn is kidnapped by a ruthless tribe to serve as a sacrifice, Bentley battles a vicious mountain creature to save her—and discovers who is truly behind Holbrook's downfall. His greatest battle is yet to come: facing the Dark Knight's most evil commander and his Shadow Warriors as they attack the castle.

Will greed destroy the kingdom as it destroyed Lord Kingsley? Or can Sir Bentley and Eirwyn restore order and prosperity through the compassion and grace of the Prince?
