"In every nook and cranny, high and low, they sought for himhe had
vanished as a star vanishes when it drops from its place in the sky."

From the author of such children's classics as The Secret Garden, Little Lord
Fauntleroy, and A Little Princess, The Lost Prince is the enchanting
story of a young boy discovering his true destiny. Twelve-year-old Marco knows he is being
trained for something, but he isn't sure what. All his life he has traveled with his father in
secrecy, learning many languages and the ways of a gentleman, but forbidden to speak
about their country of origin, Samavia. Samavia has been fraught with war for the last five
hundred years, ever since the prince mysteriously disappeared. But now, there is hope
that peace may come at last, as it has been rumored that a descendant of the lost prince
may have been found.
