| Summary |
His name is Fairy Peaseblossom, but he'd rather be known as Pete. Pete prefers pizza to sugar plums -- and wants to choose his own life too. But how can he when his role is to serve the fairy queen, Titania? This is Shakespeare's delightful comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream reinterpreted with an army of Amazons, a sea serpent and a selkie called Gaela, who luckily for Pete makes the best pizza in the world. It is also a story of the intrigues of the fairy court, of vampire plots to dominate the world and impossible loves that might just come true. Not with enchantment, but when two hearts thread together making a magic of their own. |
