Benjamin Dove

Product Description

As an adult, Benjamin Dove looks back upon a summer of his childhood that was to change his life forever. A summer when his new friend Rol&, seemingly descended from the knights of the past, encourages him to stand up for himself & for those he loves. That was a summer when he & his friends formed the Order of the Red Dragon, giving them a sense of identity & purpose in their turbulent world, for justice against injustice; & a summer when such innocent childhood games were to be torn apart by an almost inevitable tragedy. " Benjamin Dove" is a brilliantly conceived work of fiction, tinged with both light & dark humour. Disturbing themes are explored, from bullying to child abuse to gang rivalry, yet there is always a sense of the child's unbreakable spirit.
