Second Son Chronicles by Pamela Taylor

It is the dawn of the Renaissance, a time when new ideas are just beginning to emerge. Alfred — the eponymous second son — comes of age in the enlightened court of his grandfather. Alfred is convinced that his life will be unremarkable, spent in diligent but mundane service to king and kingdom. His grandfather, however, foresees for him a special destiny. “Taylor has done a marvelous job of combining fact, history, and fun.” –IndieReader. See on Amazon.
