Dit avonturenverhaal speelt zich af vlak voor het jaar 1300. Fulco, dienaar van de ridder Gijsbrecht van IJsselstein, heeft zijn bijnaam “De Minstreel” gekregen omdat hij zo mooi kan zingen. Heer Gijsbrecht trouwt met zijn geliefde Bertha, wat gevierd wordt met een groot toernooi. Maar een paar weken later slaat hun geluk om in ongeluk: ze raken van elkaar gescheiden, Gijsbrecht wordt door zijn vijanden gevangen genomen, terwijl Bertha in het kasteel IJsselstein belegerd wordt. Kan Fulco hen uit deze benarde positie redden?

The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám (Persian: رباعیات عمر خیام) is the title that Edward Fitz-Gerald gave to his translation of a selection of poems, originally written in Persian and of which there are about a thousand, attributed to Omar Khayyám (1048–1131), a Persian poet, mathematician and astronomer. A Persian ruba'i is a two-line stanza with two parts (or hemis-techs) per line, hence the word "Rubáiyát" (derived from the Arabic root word for "four"), meaning "quatrains".

Deeper questions of life and death, and of God’s relationship to man, are explored in this collection of “dreams” by a noted English novelist and literary critic. A man takes an uncertain step into the next world as his life ends – Defendants at the Last Judgment hurl their own accusations at the Judge – An angel arrives on Christmas Eve to guide one soul through a night of despair and doubt – Flowers in a garden contemplate their own mortality – What would it mean if the world renounced Christ, or God took Christ away from the world? – And in a world of the future, pleasure and luxury are pursued … and children are nowhere to be found.
