The Sword of Aradel

The book focuses on Brian, a stable boy who's not what he thinks he is, and Merra, who is half Dryad. It's set about 1,000 years ago, in the land of Aradel. Using magic, Brian and Merra must go 1,000 years into the future, to recover the hidden sword of Aradel, which is the only thing that can save their land from an evil sorceror. I highly reccomend this book! It's a wonderful children's fantasy. It's got magic, adventure, wonderful characters, and the plot is simple, but very enjoyable. Young children could enjoy this book as a fantastic adventure, and prehaps their first introduction to fantasy. Older children, say young teens, who are already fans of the genre would find this a very enjoyable read. Even if you're not a big fantasy reader, this is a very fun book. The only problem is, it's hard to find! Try looking in your local libraries.
