It takes more than skill to truly be a knight… Alistair Rudell has a lot to learn. About life, about nobility…and about jousting. He has no use for the king or Rowanark Kingdom. Nor for the high-handed ways of the nobles. But when push comes to shove-literally-and an old foe challenges Alistair, he decides to enter the jousting contest for the Princess Leera’s hand in marriage and the title of King of Rowanark. A biting horse, an escaping princess, and a highly-skilled opponent are only the beginning of Alistair’s problems in this medieval adventure to find out who has the heart of a knight and who will win the heart of a princess. Can an arrogant young man from a backwater fiefdom prove himself worthy to rule a kingdom? Or is he forever destined to work in the pigsties as the ‘Boar Knight’?
