For, since the birth of time, throughout all ages and nations,
Has the craft of the smith been held in repute by the people.

Spencer Wright-Symthe is a Baron, who is a relic hunter. Thenie's cousin Lottie (who seems very cool) brings him to Thenie to rescue her from herself. There's a lot crammed in here.
I loved the illustrations and the poems are definitely classics.
