Seeker by William Nicholson

People said that the Nomana warriors had magic powers. They carried no weapons, and wore no armour. They had no need. They were the Noble Warriors of the true way, and none could stand against them, until Seeker. All his life, Seeker has yearned to join the Nomana, to fight alongside them, to learn their spiritual ways, and, to find glory. But, this was until the day he discovers that this 'noble' sect are perhaps not as noble as they seem. Seeker sets out to uncover the truth, whatever the cost.
'a timeless piece of storytelling'TES wrote: 'an original, inventive story, cleverly plotted and full of interesting characters.' The Bookseller said: 'Seeker (is) an elegantly written story set in a distant past but with everything to say to today's readers.' The Daily Telegraph said '...an engrossing and thoughtful adventure story that held my attention from beginning to end.' 'A triumph' writes the Times, 'an epic saga' Daily Mail, 'thundering adventure and purposeful fantasy' Guardian.
His plays for television include Shadowlands and Life Story, both of which won the BAFTA Best Television Drama award. In 1988 he received the Royal Television Society's Writer's Award.

He has written and directed his own film, Firelight; and three further stage plays, Map of the Heart, Katherine Howard and The Retreat from Moscow.
