Books with author T. Buxton

Walk again into the vivid imagination of the author of "And Some Lived Happily Ever After" in this new collection of sparkling, and often dark, fairy tales. Dive deep into an unsettling world where old castles hide ghosts, dolls don't play nicely, a picture holds a sinister secret, a feisty girl takes on a malevolent princess to rescue her rather inept lover, and sprites and fairies should rarely be trusted. Meet a tiny, gold-spangled genie, good witches and bad trolls, people battling immeasurable odds to protect those they love, mountains of gold, and a wrestling river. Sly, wry humour weaves through this enchanting book, there's often a gentle moral message and ofttimes a happy ending. Though, a happy ending just depends on how bad the alternative is.

Tales for the imaginative and inquisitive! And Some Lived Happily Ever After is a journey into an unexpected and exciting other-world where giants wait in caves, where sorcerers stalk, fairies and elves roam wild woods, witches and dragons mingle with heroes and heroines, and where ordinary people live lives that are not at all ordinary. Happy endings collide with gruesome ends in a once upon a time land teeming with adventure, magic and mystery. Discover murderous shoes and gallant fighting princesses, wolf-men, ghosts, and houses with shocking secrets, as well as great courage, patience and love. A storyworld unlike anything before.
