Do you want to help your child overcome obstacles in their lives by learning how to be resilient and step away from their own self limiting beliefs? Thunder is a story about the most beautiful and majestic horse in the land. The farmer who owned him was so proud of his majestic beauty but was terribly afraid he would run away, so he kept him in a paddock surrounded by an electric fence. Thunder soon learned that if he brushed up against the fence, he would be zapped by it. So, he remained in the middle of the paddock, never galloping with the wind in his mane, or enjoying the freedom of wide-open spaces. He was very lonely, with no friends to play with. Interestingly, the farmer decided to change the electric fence wire to string in order to save money. However, by this time Thunder believed anything that looked like wire could zap him. So, he stayed in the middle of his paddock, eating his grass, and learning to live with loneliness. Until one day, on the other side of the fence, along came a little horse called Sparkles. She was beautiful, confident and free and Thunder fell in love instantly. However there was one very big problem, they couldn't be together because Thunder was fenced in and whilst Sparkles assured him that life beyond the fence was wonder filled, he was still scared of the unknown and even more terrified of escaping. Thunder didn't know what to do, until the Wise Wizard of Green Tree Frogs, hopped over and encouraged him to take a leap of faith and to think about what he could do because there is always a solution to every problem. Quickly, Thunder realised he was fenced in only by his own thoughts. So, he set about looking at different ways to get to the other side of the fence. Could he dig under the fence? Could he run through it? Could he jump over it? Thunder was scared, but with the support of his friends and hypnotic suggestions, he took a leap of faith and found his inner courage.

Prince Darling : An aged king who is a widower lavishes indulgence on his only son, who the people consequently call 'Prince Darling.' He fears he will die before the child is of age and confesses his concern to his friend, the Fairy of Truth.

Fairy tales allow the reader to explore each virtue and path of action through the different characters' fates. The child decides their own personal stance after deliberating each consequence. Fairy tales provide answers to what the world is really like and the child's place within it.

Ebben a kötetben a főhős harcossá válása útján, többet megtud arról, hogy ki is ő igazán,és milyen erőkkel rendelkezik. Börtönből való kiszabadulása után, Thor rémülten vesz tudomást MacGil király elleni újabb gyilkosság megkísérléséről. MacGil halála után, a királyságot nagy nyugtalanság szállja meg.
