Publisher's Summary

The thrilling international bestseller from Holland, now a Netflix Original Series.

It is the dead of night. Sixteen-year-old Tiuri must spend hours locked in a chapel in silent contemplation if he is to be knighted the next day. But as he waits by the light of a flickering candle, he hears a knock at the door and a voice desperately asking for help.

A secret letter must be delivered to King Unauwen across the Great Mountains - a letter upon which the fate of the entire kingdom depends. Tiuri has a vital role to play, one that might cost him his knighthood.

Tiuri's journey will take him through dark, menacing forests, across treacherous rivers, to sinister castles and strange cities. He will encounter evil enemies who would kill to get the letter but also the best of friends in the most unexpected places.

He must trust no one. He must keep his true identity secret. Above all, he must never reveal what is in the letter...

The Letter for the King is the epic story of one boy's battle against evil, set in an enchanted world of chivalry, courage, and true friendship.

Awesome book

I downloaded this audio book because I had noticed that there was a Netflix tv series based on it, and we all know that book versions are always better than tv/movies. I was right. This book was a lovely tail about a young boy name Tiuri (I think that's how you spell it). The book was wholesome, full of adventures and it was clean. The narrator had a nice voice and told the story well. I recommend it for young teens or anyone who likes YA novels.

Wonderful young teen adventure

Medieval adventure with themes of honour and being true to what you stand for, without being taxed by adult diversions.
