A desperate rescue. A dangerous disguise. And a phoenix that refuses to cooperate.
A desperate rescue. A dangerous disguise. And a phoenix that refuses to cooperate. Grimblewaith has spent years climbing the ranks of the Beandom Highway Patrol, and when his boss finally calls him in, he is certain a promotion is coming. Instead, he gets a mission. An old friend has fallen into the grip of the notorious Mafaea family and is now being forced to lead their criminal empire. To rescue him, Grimblewaith must go undercover inside the dangerous world of the fae. There is just one problem. He is not faekind. To infiltrate the Mafaea ranks, Grimblewaith must somehow transform himself, a feat only a phoenix can grant. Unfortunately, the phoenix is less than eager to help and proves to be one of the most difficult negotiators Grimblewaith has ever encountered. Now he must race across the Beandom searching for the one thing capable of winning the phoenix to his side, all while rivals close in, eager to claim the creature’s legendary powers for themselves. As danger mounts and loyalties are tested, Grimblewaith will need every ounce of courage, wit, and stubborn determination to survive long enough to save his friend. In this wildly imaginative installment of the Wonderful Week for a Quest series, the adventure grows stranger, funnier, and more dangerous than ever.
Perfect for readers who love:
• Humorous fantasy filled with absurd adventures
• Magical creatures, quests, and chaotic heroes
• Fast-paced fantasy with wit and heart
• Unlikely protagonists who stumble into greatness
For fans of Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, and fantasy worlds where absolutely nothing goes according to plan. To save his friend, Grimblewaith must become something he never expected. Assuming the phoenix agrees.
