The Stone of Knowing

A small stone creates big ripples

The untroubled world of young Thomas Stablehand is changed forever when he stumbles upon an unusual stone. With the thoughts and intents of others laid bare, he eagerly indulges his curiosity. But seeing into other minds isn't like Thomas expected. And troubles are only beginning.

Invaders attack the kingdom of Arvenon, and dangerous enemies seek the stone. Unable to release its full potential, Thomas has nowhere to turn except to his friend Will Prentis.

Will is fearless, and where he leads men follow. With the kingdom on the brink, Will leads a small band on a perilous quest to thwart the invaders. Fearing exposure, Thomas flees with them.

As Thomas struggles to unravel the enigma of the stone, Will must outwit a relentless adversary whose true purpose remains hidden.

Staying alive is a formidable challenge. Defeating their enemies seems an impossible dream.

About the Author
Packer, Allan N.: - "Allan Packer is an emerging author of epic fantasy. The Stone of Knowing and The Cost of Knowing are his first novels. Allan grew up surrounded by books and became an avid reader during his childhood. In his university years fantasy displaced science fiction as his favorite genre, thanks primarily to J. R. R. Tolkien. He later shared this love with his four children by reading The Lord of the Rings to them aloud - a three-month marathon he completed twice during their formative years. Born in Australia, Allan has lived and worked on three continents, and spent one quarter of his working years abroad. Having worked as an IT professional throughout his career, he was first published as a technical author. Today he lives with his wife in Adelaide, South Australia, near their children and a small but growing band of grandchildren. Allan is currently working on the next installment in his series The Stone Cycle."
