The Quest of the Fair Unknown
(2006)(The eighth book in the Squire's Tales series)
A novel by Gerald Morris
On her deathbed, Beaufils"s mother leaves him with a quest and a
clue: find your father, a knight of King Arthur"s court. So Beaufils
leaves the isolated forest of his youth and quickly discovers that he
has much to learn about the world beyond his experience. Beaufils"s
innocence never fails to make his companions grin, but his fresh outlook
on the world"s peculiarities turns out to be more of a gift than
a curse as they encounter unexpected friends and foes.
With his constant stream of wise fools and foolish wise men, holy
hermits and others of rather less holiness, plotting magicians and
conniving Ladies, Gerald Morris infuses these medieval stories with a
riotous humor all his own.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
