Dromo and Palini are two souls leading apparently very different lives: one a sublimely happy prisoner, the other a discontented but free-to-roam vagabond. The story is set against the backdrop of a medieval European State populated by warring tribes. During six months of an increasingly savage and brutal winter the rags-to-riches progress of these two unlikely bedfellows brings them inexorably closer to one another. Their misadventures, their triumphs and agonies, explores what it really means to be free. This 'fairy tale for grown-ups' features castles and kings, treachery and bravery, warriors and saints, holy men and holy fools. There are victories and betrayals, love potions, deadly poisons and a wizard without a wand. Above all there are twins of every shape and size, some tortured by doubt, others contented and at peace. Somewhere in their midst we are invited to discover our own spiritual home. These pages are 100% guaranteed dragon-free
