Fleeing after a quarrel, David has a bizarre motorcycle accident which hurls him back in time to medieval Prydein. A variation on the Arthurian legend, The Minstrel Boy introduces us to Merlin as a stern music teacher who takes David under his wing and a young King Arthur who becomes his friend. David eventually wins the respect of the town with his strange but beautiful songs, becoming a popular minstrel boy and quickly settling into the rhythm of this ancient society. Amidst a whirlwind of conflict and romance, David discovers a new path for his music, the source of his troubled dreams, and the heart he never knew he had. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dundurn Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47128966234352,"sku":"9781459716599","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781459716599_p0.jpg?v=1763872178","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781459716599","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
