"A wonderful story of camaraderie, adventure, and chilling mystery... The author has captured the essences of the fifties series books, pulp paperbacks, and modern mysteries and rolled them all into one, in a medieval setting. A great read!"
-- Austin Johnson, editor Bayport Gazette (webzine)
"Engaging, vivid characters draw the reader in and bring these tales to life! Thrilling adventure and well-plotted mystery, balanced by just the right amount of light-hearted humor, are sure to make this novel a hit with all ages."
-- Nancy J. Hardy, administrator Sleuth's Emporium Series Book Message Board
"The Renfaire Tales catches the readers up and transports them to 'Once Upon a Time, long, long ago,' while at the same time makes them feel that they know the characters personally, and they might bump into Tobias or Jonathan just around the corner. A light, humorous treatment of the medieval heroic quest, combined with mystery-solving!"
-- JD, Administrator, Hardy Detective Agency Hardy Boys Fanfiction site

Tobias, son of Karr, is a young lad living in the times of knighthood and chivalry. When his father, mother and best friend are accused of stealing the King's treasure, he sets off on a quest to clear not only their names, but his as well. On this journey he meets up with MacRaven, who, up till now, has been feared by the townspeople as a great and powerful wizard.
After clearing his family's name, Tobias sets off on three more adventures. Each one turns out to be more treacherous than the last.
On one adventure he must help MacRaven win the heart of his lady love by returning with a great treasure from a nearby mountain. There is a great battle with the Sultan and his men for this treasure.
Later, Tobias is kidnaped, and it's up to MacRaven and Tobias' friends Sir Terrance MacCrow (a great knight), Donuel (MacCrow's Squire) and a few other colorful characters to save him. Finally, Tobias and company end up in a spooky old castle where he and his five closest friends must battle for their lives!
Also on his journeys, he meets up with a treacherous villain by the name of Darmond. Darmond's reputation for being a powerful wizard far exceeds the rumors concerning MacRaven. Darmond's loyal and faithful minion, Reptile also becomes a very colorful character in this book as he starts out life on the wrong side of the tracks, but is slowly brought around to seeing the light by Tobias and the others.
