The journey of Artama unfolds as a timeless children's parable, blending courage, discovery, and the clash between conformity and truth. In a town lulled by contentment, one boy's curiosity burns bright. Crafted by Bruce Paul, this spellbinding speculative fiction epic introduces Artama, a young dreamer who defies the rigid doctrines of The Readers and their revered Book of Knowledge & Wisdom.

With evocative prose and a vibrant world, Artama & The Book of Knowledge & Wisdom, the first chapter of The Artama Legend series, ignites the imagination and stirs the soul. Driven to uncover truth beyond tradition, Artama ventures across the vast, untamed Plain, where he meets the mysterious Kora, a girl whose presence radiates wonder and possibility. Returning as a young man, he carries revolutionary words of wisdom-and a miracle that could shatter the status quo.
