Micah Clarke Volume 1 Of 2 Easyread Super Large 20pt Edition

Micah Clarke is a historical adventure novel by British author Arthur Conan Doyle, published in 1889 and set during the Monmouth Rebellion of 1685 in England. The book is a bildungsroman whose protagonist, Micah Clarke, begins as a boy seeking adventure in a rather romantic and naive way, falls under the influence of an older and vastly experienced, world-weary soldier of fortune, and becomes a grown up after numerous experiences, some of them very harrowing. At the conclusion he must go into exile as a hunted outlaw, becomes a soldier of fortune himself and is launched on lifetime military career. In the process the book also records much of the history of the Monmouth Rebellion, from the point of view of someone living in 17th century England.

After Tanzaa is slated to become one of the King's many wives, she soon discovers the reason: the King covets her untapped gifts of magic. But she is in love with someone else: Dayvian, a simple musician who has her heart. After Rachel - one of the Wise Ones - tells them that Dayvian is to be one of their magical order, their life takes a drastic turn. Pursued by forces both natural and unnatural, they escape the court and seek the Heart Stone: an artifact that will fulfill Dayvian's destiny. But with all odds against them and time running out, can they prevail?
