This book actually reminded me of The Once And Future King. The book is seperated into different times of Elminster's life as he is growing from a sheperd boy into a mage. Each section seemed like Elminster had to learn something about life before he could transition into the next section of his life. It was nice to see the character of Elminster grow and adapt to the different situations thrown at him, but most of the other characters are forgettable. Over all it was a good read.

It is the time before Myth Drannor, when the heartlands are home to barbarians, and wicked dragons rule the skies. In these ancient days, Elminsters is bur a shepherd boy, dreaming of adventure and heroics. When a dragon-riding magelord sweeps down upon him, though, the boy is thrust into a world of harsh realities, corrupt rulers and evil sorcerers. With patience and frit, Elministser sets about to change all that. The result of his labors is a world reborn and a mage made.
