Young Noble Talbot had no idea that his life was about to change
beyond his wildest dreams that morning as he went about his usual
chores. Noble is a simple peasant boy, the orphaned grandson of
Henry Talbot who was once the king's favorite falconer. Since his
grandfather's death the year before, Noble has been left to care
for his grandmother and himself. Henry left him a strong legacy of
faith and love for the Lord, along with keen skills in hunting and
his prized peregrine falcon, Fly. The day begins as any other-doing
chores for Granny and then taking Fly out to hunt for their supper.
Before it is over, however, a chance encounter in the hunting
fields leads to Noble abruptly leaving home and his granny for the
castle in Caernarfon.
Life at the castle is full of exciting new challenges, but also
times of loneliness and fear. Noble is quick to make friends, and
even more quickly, to his dismay-enemies. Among his new friends,
are King Stephen, who has taken a personal interest in his new
young falconer, and the little prince, William. William looks up to
Noble in the same way Noble admires the king's knights and
daydreams of being like them. Their friendship is a blessing, but
who would have suspected it would lead to such bitter jealousy and
a threat from Noble's enemies, as well? When that threat turns to
treachery and danger for the king's family, Noble does not hesitate
to take action-even if it means acting alone.
The first in the Noble Heart series, "Flight of the Falcon"
introduces us to young Noble, a lad of courage and character, faith
and fidelity. His life has been difficult at times, and adversity
and peril seem to follow him always, but armed with the knowledge
that God is with him, Noble perseveres and presses on for the
victory. Noble's journey to maturity continues throughout the
series of books as he seeks to follow and trust God through every
test and trial that comes his way. The stories are entertaining and
exciting, full of adventure and mystery-but they are encouraging,
as well, meant to inspire and influence young people in their own
life journeys.
Parents can expect good, wholesome literature in the Noble Heart
series-upholding godly values without excessive violence, bad
language, the occult, immoral conduct or disobedience to authority.
Whether read alone or as a family, these books will uplift and
nurture all.
