Omschrijving

Because magic can happen anywhere...and everywhere!Welcome to the land of Anywhere - a land of people, trolls and faeries, a place of magic, good and evil, triumph and tragedy. Welcome to Anywhere - a place very different, yet disturbingly similar to the one where you're living now.

When you say the words 'once upon a time', anything can happen
This second book in the Complete Tales from Anywhere series includes 21 Tales from and inspired by the land of Anywhere.

WHAT THE CRITICS SAY ABOUT TALES FROM ANYWHERE
"A unique reading experience. The real-life characters behind these innocuous fairy tales and fables hit you by surprise, a series of sharp rocks hidden in those snowballs. Amazingly, with all the faux-naievete and children's book elements gleefully displayed here, the writing never becomes twee or condescending. Bravo, Mr. Hennerley!" - VINE VOICE

"The most spiritually and intellectually worthwhile and inspiring read I have encountered in a very long time. To me it is a humanist masterpiece on par with Faulkner, Lawrence and Bellow. It subverts conventional morals and doctrines while anchoring the plot development and the characters upon what I would call authentic virtues, Intuitive Knowledge and Intuitive Truth." - US REVIEWS

WHAT READERS SAY:

"This is the best book I have read since The Book Thief." ★★★★★

"I really enjoyed this book...some stories can move you to tears. Brilliant." ★★★★★

"Touched my heart. Stories full of love, hope, and accepting woven beautifully with whimsy. I couldn't put this book down nor did I want to." ★★★★★

"One of the best books I've read in Damn near forever! I found myself savoring it bit by bit so it wouldn't end too soon, but sadly it is over and I must wait for another book as nurturing to my spirit." ★★★★★

"I loved this book.Yes, it's a collection of tales, but so much more. It's a reminder that we don't have to stoop to the level of the powerful one percent. Humanity can prevail with decent and kindness. While it relates the ugliness in the world today, it also offers hope and love." ★★★★★

"Should be on everyone's must read list!" ★★★★★
