Longago, in a place where wizards and castles and kings were found, Brian was justa simple cobbler, making gloves and boots and shoes for his neighbors.
In hisown words, Brian tells of the adventure that started with an unexpected visitfrom the king.
Theking needed Brian to rescue his son, Prince Randrim, from the wizard, Saukon.Brian, accompanied by a very short wizard, set out to find the prince.
Alongtheir way they met a cave full of skeletons, a cursed princess, and an evil tyrant,and saved a nation and the prince.
Learn howhe accomplished all this with a smile on his face and a song in his heart whenhe met the Black Cloud of Kandar.
What child would not enjoy such a tale?
Nobody dies, nobody even gets injured.
The wizards fight and their magic saves both ofthem from harm until they each use up their magic.
Even the thousands of skeletons regain theirbodies.
Brian, the hero of our book, succeeds because heis a true friend.
The princess, once she is uncursed, becomes abenevolent Queen, which will make any modern little girl proud.

In “The Black Cloud of Kandar,” Brian wonders why he was picked to
rescue the prince. I mean, after all, he is just a cobbler, right?
Wrong! Through a great and perilous adventure, Brian learns that he’s
much more than a common cobbler; he’s a hero! While saving kingdoms
and rescuing princes, Brian will overcome his challenges. Or will he?
With an evil sorcerer that controls a kingdom, Brian will have to have
a lot of help to win this one!
“The Black Cloud of Kandar” is a brilliant book. This book contains
a great adventure, ongoing suspense, and kid-friendly action - all in
just 90 pages! There was no gore or any kind of inappropriate content.
The younger the reader the more this book will be liked, but this book
will be liked by anybody 12 and under. I was very interested in
learning what would happen at the end of this book. I couldn’t put it
down because I was so gripped by the thrilling story. There’s no
reason not to read this adventure. Both boys and girls will like this
book equally, though most of the main characters are boys. The writing
was really good at making me want more. This is the kind of book that
is perfect for young story-loving kids.
My favorite part of “The Black Cloud of Kandar” was an epic battle that decides the end of this book.
