A Gypsy lad named Finch arrives at Wychwood Castle to find it a
tangle of muddled chivalry and magic. Though four royal children
conform to rules of chivalry, Princess Elaine is a red-haired
hoyden who can't faint, wants to study witchcraft rather than
marrying, and whose magic spells always go wrong (and so do most
others). Prince Arthur wishes that just once, people would follow
the rules of chivalry-but they never do-not even Thunder, his
warhorse, who loves to cheat at tournaments. Finch, fascinated,
stays as stable boy and tone-deaf troubadour to join Elaine in
scrapes. What with the awful Fer de Lance family, a wicked
enchantress, a mad magician, two witches, three cats, a sourcerous
hive of bees, a spell-casting mouse, and some temperamental horses,
they manage to enchant broomsticks, palace guards, a feather
duster, a footstool, troubadours and even Elaine herself. King
Godobert, determined to find husbands for his daughters, holds a
Quest. No one wants Elaine, so, betrothed willy nilly to a perfect
stranger, she rages that she won't marry him. Finch vanishes.
Elaine misses him-but when a pink magpie delivers a "save me, save
me, save me" message, life promises to be interesting despite
everything.
