Summary

New York Times best-selling author TJ Klune invites you back to the land of Verania in a new collection of short stories starring the beloved characters from the Tales of Verania series. 

In the opening story - "The Unicorn in the Tower" - Gary is a princess trapped in a stone tower by the evil Lady Tina DeSilva, who plans on sacrificing him on the first full moon after his 18th birthday. With help from his friends - a bird named Tiggy and a mangy weasel called Sam - Gary interviews potential suitors to rescue him and love him above all others, as he so rightly deserves. 

"The Unicorn in the Tower" is followed by "Sam and the Beanstalk", wherein a poor farm boy exchanges his family’s bull for magical beans and the promise of treasure in the sky. But when he climbs the beanstalk, Sam finds things are not as he expected them to be.

"The Good Boy" sees Todd and his immaculate ears taking center stage. When Todd’s father dies, he leaves his son in the care of his evil stepmother and two stepsiblings who live to make Todd’s life a living hell. It’s not until the household receives an invitation to attend a ball for the mysterious Sir that Todd begins to wish for a life beyond what he knows. 

"David’s Dragon", the final - and only canonical - tale, is set a thousand years before the rise of the dark wizard Myrin. It begins simply: a lonely boy in a small village befriends a dragon. What follows is a story of love and sacrifice, hope and heartbreak, and what it means to earn your place amongst the stars. 

Welcome back to Verania. It’s going to be a hell of a ride.

Enjoyable Story

The story and characters  are engaging and the narrator has very distinctive voices for each character, always a plus for me.

Not upto Mr klunes normal standard

The first 3 are not very good. The story about davids dragon isn't bad. I hope Mr klune isn't loosing it...

It made me laugh, then it made me cry.

Snappy fun writing as always from Mr.Klune. The first story made me laugh out loud in public places and the last story made me weep with the sense of loss. Michael Lesley is an artist. He brought every moment of the stories to life and you know a narrator is excellent when you listen to every credit just so you can hear his voice some more.

Epic and awesome

T.J and Michael have outdone themselves with these brilliant stories. David's Dragon broke my heart, just what you expect from T.J.
