Gustav's Travel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781645522669)

Within the valley, known as Angus, there resided a young man by the name of Gustav. He, along with other young men and women of the valley sought to accept the gauntlet of challenge in becoming members of King Angus's militia. Those who were called to the games would face many levels of military skills. Ariel, knew of Gustav's desire to enter the games and tried her best to test him because she was an excellent swordsman, having been taught by her father. During one of their many love matches, Ariel challenges him in a series of dangerous thrusts and parry's causing Her young opponent to fall into the farm's pond. She didn't want to be left out of this much fun, so she jumped in after him. Just then, they notice a member of the Kings militia, who had entered the farm yard. Enjoying the scene, the armored warrior laughed out loud and asked, I seek you, young Gustav, who has applied to join the Kings militia." The rider rode off and laughingly hollered: " now that I have seen your baptism, you're to report to the castle in three days." As the pair of soaked lovers watched the rider gallop away, they hugged each other, and shivering Ariel asked: " wherever you are sent, please return to me."

What measure of men and women are those who seek to protect their countries? We shall see as we follow the travels of Gustav and his love. You may find a terrible witch, a good witch, and all sorts of miscellaneous ventures with Gustav, Ariel, and a magical assortment of life.

Gustav and I have had a long relationship. This was my first and only book to have been published. It is quite a process to create a Story. I have read a lot of books but nothing like Gustav. I am an Arizona native who enjoys the blue skies and quiet deserts. I started this adventure with Gustav in my 70s, and now I seek to republish this grand story as I approach my 81st year. I thank Lettra Press for giving Gustav another chance for adventure.
