Squire & Knight

Scott Chantler, illustrated by Scott Chantler

Squire is a bookish, clever assistant to Sir Kelton, a knight whose bluster and lack of skill leave the squire overlooked. The two are sent on a quest that leads through dangerous places, mistaken assumptions, and increasingly absurd obstacles. Alongside a dragon others misunderstand, Squire helps rescue both a cursed town and the knight. The pair must learn to rely on one another.
