A Brugel Fairytale Treasury: far-fetched fables: 05 (Ondine)

From the fantastic world of Brugel comes this fairytale collection of folklore. Every tale is both refreshing and yet comfortingly familiar. The First Champion Snowgoat will delight and ultimately confuse - setting the scene for the bizarre and particularly Brugelish folklore to follow. Jacqueline and the Magic Beans - who brought the wonders of coffee to Eastern Europe. Wilona at the Christmas Ball - who almost met Cinderella but became distracted with a younger and more interesting princeling. Elmaree - who etymologists credit with the local idioms burn your bridges and flee like Elmaree. Plus many more stories to delight discombobulate and possibly entertain. This book is a welcome companion to the internationally acclaimed four-part Ondine series by the same author. Lovers of The Princess Bride will adore these tales.
