About the Book

ELIXIR The Medieval Quest centers around Sebastian, an English Alchemist who embarks on an exciting and perilous journey across Medieval Europe in search of the fabled Elixir of Life. He is pursued by his evil uncle, who is in league with an ambitious nobleman, and by his lover, who wants to warn him of the imminent danger. In addition, the French Army and the Holy Roman Empire engage in a desperate race for the Elixir. All parties are headed toward an inevitable collision in the Swiss Alps, and only a chosen few will survive.
