CLARKSVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 16, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- "The Griffin Stone" by The Count (now available through 1stBooks Library) is the most incredible adventure story ever written for children.
The Count has received dozens of letters saying, "The book is absolutely awesome." It is an adventure about three young friends that embark on an incredible journey into another time. They are called upon by the heart and soul of the good wizard to free him from a prison; locked away by the evil black wizard. On their journey they battle many dangerous creatures, meet many different characters, and have exciting and dangerous adventures.
This is an adventure that only the purest of heart could take, to battle the evil forces, and to restore the good wizard back to the throne of his kingdom. But more than merely an adventure story, it's a parable of great friendship and love for other people. This book teaches morals to children showing them the importance of sacrifice for others. It's a story that highlights the good in people.
