Squire is brainy, bookish, and terribly under-appreciated by his boss, the brawny, inept knight, Sir Kelton, who somehow always gets all the glory. So, when the two mis-matched heroes find themselves in a cursed village, plagued by a demonic dragon, Kelton rides off to slay it, and Squire stays behind to catch up on some reading. But Squire starts to notice that something isn’t quite right about this town . . . can he uncover its strange secrets?
Scott Chantler’s prolific pen has inked a fantastic world with a compelling mystery. With characters that are relatable and dynamic, Squire & Knight is an instant classic that will enthrall readers.

Squire and Knight

Review by Lou
This is such a charming tale of adventure! Squire and Knight pass through a dilapidated village on their travels and discover it's being slowly destroyed by a mighty dragon who's taken over the old wizards tower. Knight promises to slay the beast and save the village from danger, but maybe it's not what it seems, maybe there's just been a misunderstanding, and maybe Squire's the one to figure it all out.

Review by Alex
This clever graphic is an excellent fantasy-adventure! All about bravery, playing to your strengths, and with a fantastic cast of relatable characters (especially the deadpan dragon!). Great for ages 7-11.
