Returning to the idea years later, Lincoln rewrote the story around Max, a ten-year-old apprentice troubadour who dreams of becoming a knight. The result is a high-spirited medieval adventure, supported by hundreds of dynamic illustrations employing the language of comics. Of the lively visual format that has become his trademark, Lincoln says, I try to write the sort of books I would have loved reading when I was a kid.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen he is not writing or drawing, Lincoln enjoys playing ice hockey, doing crossword puzzles, and hosting a weekly radio show devoted to vintage country music. He and his wife, Jessica, have two children and live in Portland, Maine.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lincoln Peirce","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49611142988004,"sku":"9781101931080","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/9781101931080.jpg?v=1786175556","url":"https:\/\/bookandmortar.com\/products\/max-and-the-midknights-lincoln-peirce-hardcover","provider":"BookandMortar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
