""What if"" may have replaced "once upon a time" in fantasy
fiction. "The Dream of Althazar" dares our imagination to follow a
journey of major ""What ifs."" Are not journeys-"quests"-the very
core of fantasies?
Now, what if the Wise Men-the Magi-were not the only ones to
follow the Star of Bethlehem?
And what if this other star journey was a bit skewed in time,
places, and especially its characters?
Althazar, a very special bear, is commissioned by his father to
follow a star to Althazar's special, though unknown, life's
destiny. Althazar is instructed to journey in peace, with civility
and respect for all creatures and cultures.
On this unusual mission, Althazar gathers in some unusual
volunteers: Lothar, a restless bored wolf; Greyl, a grief-stricken
lonely goose; Borab, an opportunistic gourmet wild boar; and
Dromed, an aged camel left behind from the Magi's original star
journey.
These five very different animals come together with their
unique differences for one common commitment-the journey-and
ultimately connect with a sixth animal-Solomon, the donkey who ties
together the Magi story, their Star, the camel Dromed, and a very
special love that illuminates one dream-and invites yet
another.
