The Last of the Baron

Three Boys and One Ruthless Baron

When the King calls for volunteers to bring down the ruthless Baron Gisorn, three boys take up the challenge. Gerald, a royal page, joins forces with Tom, an armourer’s apprentice, and Robin, a wizard’s former helper, to find a way into the baron’s stronghold. With help from the formidable Lady Emmeline and a mysterious powder they call “surprise,” the boys hatch a plan that brings the castle down around them, but they still have to face Gisorn himself.
