What Jack Merryweather longs for most for Christmas is another adventure - particularly to return to the remarkable city of Aletheia in the land of Err. He doesn't know how to get there or what's happened to his Aletheian friends since he was last there. But to his surprise, when he least expects it, he finds himself on the snowy streets of Aletheia, just in time to join the Christmas mission into the land of Err. But things don't quite go as planned. In a snowstorm Jack loses track of the other she is travelling with and finds himself quite alone in Err, facing strange creatures whose spiteful, meddlesome ways prove so troublesome and deceptive. Just when he most longs for a friend, Jack is reunited with Timmy Trial who shared his last adventure in the land of Err. Together the two boys set out to join the Christmas mission which is taking the good message of salvation to the town of Broken, far away across the snowfields of Err. Help comes in the most unexpected fashion, and trouble follows them as the Meddlers descent in their fearful hoards. Do the two boys have the faith and courage to battle against the creatures of Err? Will they ever complete their journey to Broken? And what will they find in the ruined and troubled town if they ever arrive?

NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL EXTRA INFORMATION I hope you enjoy this story about the days of Alfred the Great. No one called him “the Great” in those days, he was not given that title until hundreds of years later, but I have tried to show you in the story what a great king he really was. What we know about Christians and how they lived at thistime is very small but we can be sure there were some and that, just like Christians today, they had their faults as well as their strong points. Modern research1 seems to indicate that although there hadbeen some knowledge of Christianity in Britain for a very long time, in some places in Alfred's timethe Saxons had never really understood it or abandoned their pagan beliefs. Although I am only guessing, of course, it is quite possible that somewhere in Wessex in those war-torn times there was a village like Leofham where... but I must not give away too much of the story!
