Peculiar pet shops. Troublesome dream homes. And robot vacuums that just want to be free
Looking for a captivating, quick escape from reality? The Great Escape's fifteen tales of myth, magic, and whimsy provide just that.
Ranging from beguiling magical realism to laugh-out-loud silliness to dark (but not too dark) fantasy, this anthology packs a delightful punch.
Inside, you'll discover vacations gone enchantingly wrong, questionable business practices, worrying parental habits, misbehaving reptiles, and Norse gods in a serious bind.
With each story readers also get a behind-the-scenes peek into the author's world with a tasty tidbit detailing how the tale came to life.
Some stories have a little violence (nothing gruesome) and mild cursing, but no "on-screen" hanky panky (a giant does have some off-screen fun, but I'll leave you to discover that one).
The Great Escape is perfect for fans of:The quirky contemporary fantasy and whimsical humor of Terry Pratchett, C.K. McDonnell, or Jodi Taylor.
Witty, fast-paced fantasy anthologies that keep you flipping pages with unexpected twists and turns.
Lighthearted humorous fantasy with a clever comedic edge, and darker fantasy that delivers only the tiniest of shivers.
Genre-blending short stories that offer a little bit of something for everyone.

"...an entertaining and enjoyable read." - Jack Allen, The Eugene Review

Über den Autor
Author of humorous fantasy whodunits full of mythical misfits and magical mishaps.
THE RAMBLING BIO AND OFFER OF FREE STUFF...
Many moons ago I was a scientist in a neuroscience lab where I got to play with brains and illegal drugs. Now, I take wickedly strong tea and turn it into comic fantasy whodunits full of mythical misfits and magical mishaps that I hope give you a giggle.
My tales run the gamut from the ever-expanding Cassie Black Trilogy with its wryly humorous paranormal mysteries to the comical cozy fantasy mysteries in The Circus of Unusual Creatures, and from light-hearted novellas celebrating my love of books to short fiction in which I really flex my myth-loving and humor-craving muscles!
When I'm not creating worlds or killing off characters, I can be found gardening, planning my next travel adventure, concocting some sort of mess in the kitchen, or working as an unpaid servant to three cats and a guinea pig.
Want to learn more and get free stuff? Then be sure to pop by [...] to see everything I'm up to and to grab your free copy of "Mrs. Morris Meets Death," a humorous tale of mortality, time management, cruise ships, and romance novels.
THE QUICK AS YOU CAN STORY BEHIND MY BOOKS...
My fascination for myths, history, and how they interweave inspired my two historical fantasy series, The Osteria Chronicles and my second series, Domna.
But all those ancient myths and angst-ridden heroes got a bit too serious for someone with a strange sense of humor and odd way of looking at the world.
So, while sitting at my grandmother's funeral, my brain came up with an idea for a contemporary fantasy trilogy that's filled with magic, mystery, snarky humor, and the dead who just won't stay dead. That idea turned into The Cassie Black Trilogy, which has turned into a fan favorite.
Then, because writer brains are weird, a simple elephant story I had in mind somehow morphed into a "hilarious" cozy fantasy series with a detecting dragon. So, if you like comic fantasy whodunits that mix in laughs with murderous mayhem, mythical beasts, and a staggering variety of omelets, you'll want to check out my Circus of Unusual Creatures mysteries!
