Joust of Honor

the second book in "A Knight's Story" by Paul Stewart, illustrated by Chris Riddell. written in first person. Sir Knight finds his way into a town at a joust competition and is set up to take the fall in a larger plot. Stewart's style of writing is sarcastic, realistic and extremely entertaining. his characters are colorful (which Riddell brings to life) written for a younger audience, just means they are meant to be entertaining.. writing for children is tricky.. have to hold their attention, they won't plow through a book like "grown-ups" will. definitely recommend.
