'A true page-turner' Sunday Times
The bestselling classic fantasy novel, acclaimed as a Times, Sunday Times and Metro Book of the Year.
A young messenger. A secret mission. A kingdom in peril.
When Tiuri answers a desperate call for help, he finds himself on a dangerous errand that could cost him his life. He must deliver a secret letter to the king who lives across the Great Mountains - and the future of the entire realm depends on his message.
It means abandoning his home, breaking all the rules and leaving everything behind - even the knighthood he has dreamed of for so long. He must trust no one. He must keep his true identity a secret. Above all, he must never reveal what is in the letter.
The fate of the kingdom rests on him.

Brevet till kungen är en äventyrsklassiker från 1962 som översatts till 15 språk, gjort internationell succé och trollbundit miljontals barn och vuxna. Efter drygt 50 år kommer den nu äntligen i svensk översättning. Så småningom kommer den också som serie på Netflix. Filmad i Prag och Nya Zeeland. Sextonåriga Tiuri är instängd i stadens katedral för att vaka. Han har sällskap av en grupp äldre pojkar, men de får inte tala med varandra. Sådan är traditionen natten innan man dubbas till kungens riddare. Men mitt i natten hör Tiuri en knackning på porten och en desperat vädjan. Ett brev måste levereras till kung Unauwen i landet på andra sidan den höga bergen. Tiuri bryter mot alla regler och lämnar kyrkan. Han ger sig av på en farlig färd som tar honom genom mörka, hotfulla skogar, över förrädiska floder och till slott där ondskan härskar. Tiuri vet inte vad som står i brevet, men inser snart att han har fiender som är beredda att döda honom för att få tag på det. Han kan inte lita på någon och inte avslöja vem han är, ändå lyckas han finna många vänner på sin strapatsrika färd. Brevet till kungen tar läsaren med på ett klassiskt äventyr där en pojke måste stå upp för det goda och kämpa mot ondska. Följ med in i en magisk värld av gott och ont där riddare, höviskhet, mod och sann vänskap gnistrar som stjärnor på himlen. En fortsättning på Triulis äventyr finns i boken Vilda skogens hemligheter. FörfattarenTonke Dragt föddes 1930 och växte upp i Jakarta, Indonesien. Under Andra världskriget och den japanska ockupationen placerades hela familjen i fångläger i tre år. Tonke Dragt, då tonåring, brukade tigga papper för att kunna skriva ner sina historier. Efter kriget flyttade familjen hem till Holland. Tonke utbildade sig till lärare, men kunde snart försörja sig på sitt skrivande. Fram till 2007 – då åldern började ta ut sin rätt och reumatismen blev för svår – skrev hon 15 böcker. Hon är en av Nederländernas mest älskade författare. - E-bokSvenska, 2020, 9-12 år
