Master Storyteller Joseph Bruchac’s latest novel, 龙城堡, draws on the rich and magical legends of his Slovakian heritage as it explores themes of the hero’s journey, 寻找自我的旅程, and the courage to face one’s destiny.  15 year old Prince Rashko has lived his whole life in a peace secured by a distant ancestor, 勇敢的帕沃.  It’s a good thing that peaces abounds, 太, because his parents and older brother Paulek seem to be more interested in daydreaming, sword fighting and living a life of ease than in doing much of anything to secure the safety and long-term security of the realm.  但Rashko阅读更多→
