One hundred years after the events of the number one Sunday Times bestselling Stonewater Kingdom duology, Bartholomew must once again become a squire and journey across Traum in this standalone novella from the queen of gothic fantasy, Rachel Gillig, featuring gorgeous full-page black-andwhite illustrations by the author.

You know this story, Bartholomew. We all, in our own way, have a story like this . . .

Sybil, Rory, and Bartholomew have been living peacefully in the Stonewater Kingdom for a century after the events of The Knave and the Moon. Bartholomew, the knowingest knower to ever know anything, has taken it upon himself to educate the latest young king in the ways of the world. But though King August is committed to maintaining the delicate balance between humans and sprites, she is also stubborn, academic, and devoted to reason. This simply cannot do.

So, when a new sprite with ungodly powers is discovered wandering across the kingdom, there is nothing for it but to go on a quest. And what does a King need on a quest? A squire, of course, Bartholomew.

I'll tell it to you as best I can and promise to be honest in my talebearing. If I'm not, it is for a good reason.
