Where Flemish Dreams Are Made

By Lucien Firman Cattrysse

Where Flemish Dreams Are Made vividly details events in a young man's life that move him from well-intentioned innocent with a thirst for history and adventure to real-life hero

Eighteen-year-old Baldwin van Ryssel is keen to travel in the footsteps of the twelfth-century Flemish crusader bearing his name, Baldwin I, to the splendour of the city once know as Constantinople. His adventures turn into more than he bargained for as he becomes caught in a web of underworld intrigue and must fight for his life to return home to his family and to the Belgian beauty who has stolen his heart.

Lucien Cattrysse reconciles dry dark humour with gritty reality, diving deeply into the background of his characters. His imaginative portrayals, immersive settings, and compelling plotline will take readers into another world.

Readers of adventure travel will enjoy this book. Those who acknowledge that travellers should expect the unexpected and work with whatever Chance, God, or the Fates have in store for them will embrace it. Where Flemish Dreams Are Made will leave the most dedicated homebody reaching for their atlas to plan their next getaway.
