The second magnificent volume in the Arthur trilogy, where medieval life and Arthurian magic transcends boundaries, with appeal for children of 9+ and older readers alike.
It's the year 1200 and young Arthur de Caldicot is preparing to go on crusade.
While he trains for battle, he also watches the adventures of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table unfold in his magical Seeing Stone.
The visions in the stone help Arthur unravel the secrets of the past, and start him on a quest of his own ... to find his mother.
At the Crossing Places is the second volume in the ARTHUR trilogy. The trilogy has sold over 1 million copies and has been translated into 25 languages.
"¿an impressively multi-layered book, beautifully written, and a terrific piece of storytelling. I was impressed as much by Crossley-Holland's way with words as by the story itself."
