About this title

Synopsis

A young girl stumbles into a strange and dangerous land filled with fairies, nymphs, and the most bizarre characters in this odd, dark fairy tale adventure about innocence, nonsense, and wanderlust.

Think Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but more twisted. 

Think the Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales, but weirder. 

Think the Wizard of Oz, but darker.

After following a stranger up and down a magical tree, Harlot finds herself in an absurd land littered by depraved creatures who have one thing on their mind, the carnal sort. With a few somewhat helpful fairies, the naive and graceless (and quite rude) girl finds herself wandering through the most bizarre and even psychedelic situations that could only make sense in the world of fairies. How will Harlot survive the bloody goblins who want to eat her? the tricky Nigwig who wants to beat her? and does the knight and his sword simply want to greet her?

Written in the style of classic children's books, like Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz, but meant for adults. Find yourself thinking twice at each encounter and dark nursery rhyme, getting lost in this exciting journey into fairyland, the Land of Ick and Eck.

From the Back Cover

A dark and bizarre faerie tale adventure where innocence, nonsense, and wanderlust are a labyrinth unto their own.

After following a strange creature up and down a tree, Harlot finds herself in an absurd land littered with depraved creatures of the carnal sort.

Accompanied by a few somewhat helpful faeries, the naive and graceless girl curiously wanders through the most peculiar situations that could only make sense in the land of faeries.

How will Harlot survive the bloody trolls who want to eat her?
Or the tricky Nigwig who wants to beat her?
And does the knight and his sword simply want to greet her?
