Calyx of Teversall

After a few years of learning his uncle's business at the curio shop, and singlehandedly establishing a trading partnership with the gnomes, the clever and resourceful Calyx can practically run the shop himself. Things are going so well that he almost forgets why he's living with his aunt and uncle: his mother is hiding him from a menacing, manipulative Borgh elf named Fenbeck, who could arrive in town any day to claim Calyx as his apprentice. With hints of Rumpelstiltskin and touches of gnome wisdom, this exciting, endearing tale written in a classical style will be treasured by parents and children alike.
