by Harry G. Potter (Author)
Young Brother Jacob loves being a monk and a guardian of Whitehaven. But now that he has proven himself a scholar and master of the quarterstaff, thoughts of the world beyond the monastery walls begin to stir within him. Even so, one does not just leave the monastery. He knows such thoughts will bring trouble, but he can no longer put them aside. His plan is clever, seeming to absolve him of responsibility: let the bully-monks sell him to the traveling circus. The plan is to become a squire and someday perform show-fights with the traveling knights. But when this dream turns to drudgery as a mere baggage-boy, Jacob flees-only to stumble into the heart of a dark and ancient struggle.
Beyond the monastery walls, the world has not the enlightened realms he imagined. The Dire of Melancholy, a high druid of unspeakable power, spreads his corrupting influence, threatening the balance of good and evil. Even other holy orders themselves waver, as a rival order, the Friars of Whigg, resort to forbidden works-raising ancient wizards from the dead in their desperation to fight the Dire.
Branded a heretic, hunted by his own brothers, and torn between the forces of light and darkness, Jacob joins a rogue band of warriors and the mysterious Sorcerer Arizel on a raid against the Dire. As magic stirs and the world teeters on the brink of a new dawn of evil, Jacob faces a soul-shaking truth: he may be the very instrument by which all is lost.
For fans of epic fantasy, medieval adventure, and chivalric quests, Never Leave Your Monastery is a tale of courage, intrigue, and the battle for the soul of the world.
