The King's Messenger
Smuggins stands every day ready and waiting in the King's courtroom in the castle. It's the center of all the kingdom, perched high in its city, rising from the plains around it. The King's people love him, but there are rumors of unrest at the edges of kingdom—North, East, West, and South. Some do not trust the King's goodness. As a messenger for the King, Smuggins has one of the most prestigious positions in all the land.
Through Smuggins' service to the King he learns every day more about the King's character and his own. In his adventures, Smuggins will learn of battles and politics, friendships and loyalty. He will fight in battles and carry invitations to the King's courtroom. But even in all of this, Smuggins knows one thing: as a King's Messenger, his most important task is to make the King's goodness known throughout the land.
This new edition, released by Bandersnatch Books in 2022, has been reformatted and updated from the first edition (2017). It is now 5” x 8”, includes a new illustration, and has corrected typos.
