Prince Carvalloâs second name is adventure. Or perhaps trouble. This time, he takes us to a cold and inhospitable world of mysteries. Behind the stormy weather conditions lurk scary demons that are ready to strike. And when Monika disappears, the rescue mission is the first and foremost thing on the agenda for our friends. But they are in for a shock, for nothing on this strange, demonic world is what it seems. Gotthardt stays true to his nature, and presents the readers with sufficient action, hair-raising and humorous episodes, as well as with some really important moral messages.
In "The Magical Falcon", Peter Gotthardt moves from his preferred and rich elven themes and moves to the realm of the magical. Of course, magic is an important element in his entire work, but here he praises it enormously. It follows the adventures of three children, whose quite ordinary lives are turned upside down by the appearance of Prince Carvallo, who takes them to a magical land.
