"Foster may not be as dangerous as the Wolf, but he is a sly old
fox nevertheless, and I want him caught," the king instructed the
young knight standing before him. "He has cheated several old
widows out of their homes, and to my mind that makes him the
"worst" of thieves. It should not be too difficult to apprehend him
alone, Sir Noble. The old man is no swordsman. His weapon is his
"tongue." You will not find a more cunning liar and cheat in all
the kingdom. In fact, that is how he escaped the knights who were
bringing him in-not by weapons, but by his lies and trickery. If
you catch him, he will not so easily deceive "you," I am sure."
Noble is disappointed that he is not to ride out with the other
knights after the kingdom's most dangerous criminal, the Wolf, and
his gang, but instead is going on his own after an old man. Without
complaint, however, he plunges out into the bitter cold of the
worst winter in memory. It does not take long to find the old
scoundrel in the village of Aber, but blizzards block the way back
to Caernarfon and the dungeons awaiting Simon Foster. While they
wait to make their journey Noble is dismayed to discover his
prisoner has more than one or two nasty tricks up his sleeve
To make matters worse, the eerie howling of wolves bring
childhood fears rushing back. They seem to haunt his dreams and
even his footprints in the snow. Noble pushes on, putting his trust
in God and allowing nothing to prevent him from carrying out his
duty. He finds help from the people of Aber, and in turn helps
"them" in their greatest hour of need when wolves-both the
four-footed sort and those walking on two feet-surround them
all.
"Winter of the White Wolf" is the fourth book in the Noble Heart
series. Once again we see Noble step out in faith and with courage
to do the king's will-and the will of His Heavenly Father, as well.
As young Sir Noble follows God, he becomes a leader of men and an
example of strength and valor. 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 not only 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.
Cover art beautifully done by Sarah Lowe.
