What is Quest for the Faradawn about?

In Silver Wood, the animals live together peacefully, fearing only the violence of Man. But the oldest, wisest animals know that one day a human rescuer will join them and grow up to save the green and pleasant places of the world. One crystal-clear Christmas Eve the legend begins to come to life. Brock the badger finds a baby boy abandoned in the snowy woods. As he grows up among the animals, Nab's destiny becomes clear: he is the one who will journey across the land to gather one by one from their Elflord guardians the three Faradawn, the magical essences of life itself. Only when he has them will he be prepared for his final confrontation with the very face of evil. But even with the help of his animal friends, and of the golden-haired Beth, his only human companion, Nab’s quest has become a race against time, for Man in his folly is moving with terrible speed towards his own destruction.‘A blend of Tolkien and Watership Down unfolded in masterly style. Ford not only writes superbly, his intimate knowledge of animals and the countryside shines through every page... a sensitive, exciting and engrossing novel which puts the author among the first rank of contemporary English novel
