A-Z Recommendation L: The Letter for the King


Our book recommendation for the letter L for YA is... The Letter for the King

This book was original published in 1962! and has recently been republished and given its time in the limelight with a new Netflix series based off it. Being hailed as "Game of Thrones of the younger age" this book is getting some great praise!

Tiuri is a knight in training, and is in the middle of his final test when a desperate man pleads with him to deliver a letter to King Unauwen. King Unauwen's castle it located over great mountains, treacherous rivers, menacing castles and unusual towns. Other fierce enemies are also after the letter and if this man couldn't make the journey to King Unauwen's castle how is he a seventeen year old boy who isn't even a knight yet going to make it?

Tiuri is going to need all the help he can get to deliver the letter and lucky for readers there are some brilliant characters on their way... and not all are on his side.
