Legendary Talespinners

Edition excerpt from Legendary Talespinners (2010): From the dawn of creation there have been storytellers spinning timeless fables and folktales. Call them historians, poets, philosophers, or charlatans, it was their fanciful re-tellings of the age of wonder that kept children enwrapped in fantasy and immersed in imagination. But over the last two centuries something dark has been devouring the storytellers — and even the stories themselves — leaving children with dulled imaginations and no will to believe in giant killers or wicked witches. Abby was one of those children and is now a young woman who still lives only in the concrete reality of her professional ambitions. Raised by a mother who had no time for ""childish pursuits,"" she grew up too fast and locked her fertile imagination away forever. But Abby's orderly world comes crashing down upon her when a crazy old man who believes himself to be the real Baron Munchausen leads her into a festering fantasy world facing villainous henchmen, zombified fairytale creatures, and the most unlikely wickedest witch of them all! Written by James Kuhoric (Dead Irons / Freddy vs Jason vs Ash), illustrated by Grant Bond (Igor / Trick R Treat), and art directed by Nick Bradshaw (Danger Girl / Army of Darkness), Legendary Talespinners reshapes how we look at fables and the imagination!
