Arthur looked at himself in the mirror that sat on the dresser. "You aren't seventeen anymore, you know. You are an old fool weighing down two well-trained young princes. You need to mind your own business and spend more time with your kids and grandkids. If they get themselves killed, it isn't your business."Arthur frowned deeper."Not going to happen," Arthur told himself, pointing at the mirror with his pipe. "I don't want to just sit in front of the fire and rot. I don't want to build a farm. I don't want to get old without a fight. I need this adventure. Yes, I am an old fool, but that's what happens when young fools don't die young."Arthur looked at the thick scar that ran from the middle of his forehead into his hairline and around toward his ear. There was a second scar going from his neck around to his back."Those boys don't know what is waiting for them on the other side, but you do. They need you. Old fool or not, they will need you."Join three travelers on a witty adventure set in an exotic fairy world. An unusual Brownie adventurer named Arthur, and the twin princes, Timothy and Nathaniel, join forces to travel to the underside of their coin-shaped world to break the curse that has turned Nathaniel's fiancee into stone. Arthur must face his traumatic past as he leads Nathaniel and Timothy on the same journey that killed his friends more than forty years before, getting them all stuck far from home with only one impossible way home. Things continue to go wrong when they learn that this curse is just the beginning of more significant problems threatening to destroy the Guardian of the Ocean. Struggling through a debilitating injury, Nathaniel must risk everything to save the ones he loves. Timothy must let go of his dark magic past to use his fire magic against the alliance that threatens to destroy the world with water.
