Books with title Horatio Hobbs and the Calimor: A tale of adventure

The wanderlust they called it and Horatio Hobbs was smitten. Tales of Shadowmere forest, the magical woods of Celeste, Bloodeye trolls and the great mounds of the Serpent had left this young apprentice with no choice but to set out on an adventure.At the age of eight he’d been presented with an acorn by the mysterious fox Mister Moorcroft; but this was no ordinary acorn: This was the Calimor.With his sixteenth birthday approaching the young apprentice sets off on a journey; a journey that takes him from the humble town of Drinkwater, across the plains and the hills of the north lands to the dense woods of Shadowmere forest.Pursued by the fearsome King Bovik and his tribe of Bloodeye trolls, Horatio Hobbs finds an unexpected ally in the form of Albert Krunger, a Bloodeye banished from the tribe for un-troll like behaviour. “That’s just the problem,” he tells Horatio. “I’m just too bleedin' nice.”Along with Thomas the old grey pony and with Albert Krunger by his side, Horatio Hobbs discovers the identity of his father, the secrets of Shadowmere forest, the magic of the Eldrin and a world that he had only ever dreamed of.
