In the ancient country of Orn an old man lives inside what is practically a beehive, until a sorcerer tells him he has been transformed and he goes looking for what he once was. The other stories include a griffin who comes to town to see his own statue, a dryad freed by an old piper, and a queen determined to make her subjects love her museum.

Dry, gently absurd fairy tales from the author of The Lady, or the Tiger?, as good for adults as for children. Download the free EPUB.
