How can you look at your life the same when you find out the man you grew up thinking is your father really isn't? Once Chris' mother dies, he takes off to `find himself' - to look deep inside himself and discover who he really is and what he's meant for. Along the way he meets Magda and her father, who both end up teaching him some important life lessons. All along, Chris still fights within himself to decide if he should follow the future his adoptive father sees for him or to strike out on his own for good and travel the world as he finds out more about himself.Thought-provoking and absorbing, The Vagabond King will strike a chord within your heart and mind. Blending mythology, religion, and music with the harsh light of reality brings us something unique and creative. Mr. Conway has written a soulful and soul-searching novel of a young man's coming of age.
