When Barnabas Shuttleworthy's wounded horse returns home without him, townspeople are alarmed. His friend, Charley Goodfellow, directs a search. No better person to lead one – for Charley has the eye of a lynx. The search party doesn't find Barnabas Shuttleworthy, but clues point to a suspect who may have done him harm. Suspenseful and surprising, this Edgar Allan Poe tale also contains a heavy dose of good, gallows humor. Masterfully illustrated by Marc Johnson-Pencook.

An unwelcome guest appears as Mark Twain prepares to host his dear Aunt Mary’s annual visit. Straightaway the guest begins exposing and attacking Mr. Twain’s character. But Mr. Twain refuses to be shamed by the likes of this scaly, unwelcome intruder, so he immediately joins an all-out contest of wits and insults. Follow the battle royal as it plays out and see its wild aspects displayed through the wickedly original minds-eye of illustrator Marc Johnson-Pencook.
