T.J. Laverne

Virtually friendless and rather stupid, Princess Lu'lu' of Bahiri leaves her golden palace walls for the first time in 32 years with the intention of seeking the famed Drupe of Immortality, which blooms only once every 5,000 years. Arabian Nights meets The Wizard of Oz when Lu'lu' is joined by a tree, a brass horseman and a sphinx, who venture together across the desert and to the end of the world on the most exciting adventure of their lives.

 

In this compilation of 10 adult-oriented fairy tales, T.J. Laverne presents a journey across the desert and beneath the sea, through Heaven and Hell and to another planet, alongside a multitude of unforgettable characters, ranging from a gargoyle to a snowman. In a variety of genres, from romance and comedy, to science fiction and horror, discover the wonders of Greek, Norse, and Arabian mythologies, and the legends of King Arthur, and reunite with the child within.
