The Jouneyman: The Courage to Act (Book Two of The Apprentice Trilogy)

By Timothy M Buchanan

He chased the dream. Now he must fight to keep it alive.

Hans is now a recognized craftsman. But the title is only the beginning. The world beyond the workshop is harsher than any training. Clients demand perfection. Rivals play dirty. And dreams are easily splintered.

As Hans struggles to build his business, he finds that talent alone won't be enough to survive. Old enemies return with unexpected intentions. A new threats emerges with sharper edges who will stop at nothing to see Hans fail. In a world ruled by power, deception, and ruthless ambition, Hans must learn to be more than just a master of wood - he must become a master of himself.

Is his vision strong enough to withstand the pressure? Can he protect what he's built without losing who he is? And will his work ever be worthy of the king's castle or will it be buried beneath the weight of betrayal?

In this powerful final installment of the trilogy, the boy who once dreamed by firelight must now stand as a man in the storm.
