Tales from the Shadow Clan

By Hal Warfield

Step into a world where tears fill enchanted boxes, mountains hold their breath waiting for brave riddles, and whole cities lie sleeping until someone is bold enough to wake them.

Tales from the Shadow Clan gathers eight original fairy tales for curious minds young and old - stories brimming with courage, magic, humor, and hard-won wisdom. Perfect for reading aloud with children ages 8-12, or savoring quietly by any adult who still believes a great story can change the way you see the world.

Eight tales await:

The Box of Tears - A young girl takes on the weight of the world's sorrow so that others might know joy. A story of sacrifice, beauty, and unexpected gifts.The Chamber Mountain - The river has run dry, and a cunning troll guards the only path forward with a demand for impossible riddles. Impossible, that is, until now.Fire Night - A brother and sister stumble upon a city lost to enchanted sleep - and discover that waking it means standing face-to-face with dragons.The Darkness without a Disguise - To push back a darkness that conceals nothing, three things must be found: an orb, a student, and a lance. Finding them is only the beginning.The Day of the Airborne Dreamers - A young man has always dreamed of flying. When a sprite appears, his dream suddenly has wings - and so does he.The King of Circumstances - Six grumpy men share the same troubles. Only one discovers the secret to rising above them.The Impatient Farmer - An inherited farm and a restless spirit prove that some lessons can't be hurried - no matter how hard you try.The Stillness Broken - On the hottest, quietest day of summer, small sounds begin to stir. What follows is pure, golden magic.

Whether read in one enchanted sitting or one tale at a time, these stories remind us that wonder is always closer than we think.
