Book Overview

this epic fantasy, Ralph of Upmeads embarks on a perilous quest to find the legendary Well at the World's End, a mystical source of eternal life and wisdom. Set in a richly detailed medieval world, Ralph faces numerous challenges and encounters magical creatures, treacherous villains, and powerful allies along the way.

Using language with elements of the medieval tales which were his models, Morris tells the story of Ralph, the youngest son of King Peter of Upmeads. Their kingdom being rather humble, Ralph and his three elder brothers are bored of the provincial life, so one day they request permission from their father to explore the world. The king allows the three eldest sons to depart, but bids Ralph to stay to ensure at least one living heir. Ralph, desperate for adventure and against his father's will, sneaks away.
