![]() ![]() The Ravenmaster’s Secret: Escape from the Tower of London (#1) is about eleven year old Forrest Harper, the son of a yeoman warder who guards the Tower of London in the year 1735, when it was used as a prison.įorrest’s father is also known as the Ravenmaster, as aside from guarding the prisoners, he also cares for the ravens that live in the tower walls, kept for good luck and fortitude against enemies.įorrest has lived by the castle walls all of his life, doing his share of chores day in and out. Then some months later, I mooched a book from abroad that needed an additional mooch to help defray shipping costs, and I found a copy of this book in the member’s inventory so I decided to finally get it.Ī couple weekends ago, I went out of town for a board meeting with one of my clients and brought this along to read while traveling, and it turned out to be one of the best historical middle-reader books I’ve ever read. When I first saw Elvira Woodruff’s The Ravenmaster’s Secret: Escape from the Tower of London, I couldn’t help thinking how terribly interesting and ominous it appeared to be, and I wanted to buy the book, but it was a bit expensive so I decided to pass on it first. ![]()
