Read A Stark And Wormy Knight Online
Authors: Tad Williams
Because the moat around the sugar bowl has definitely worked. The ants never got near it. Karl can see that clearly as he sets it down on the table in front of the freckled cop, because there in full view, perched on a mound that is snowy white except for the crusted bit of sugar at the top that has gone brown with dried blood, lies the severed tip of one of Norah’s fingers, nail and all.

TAILCHASER’S SONG

THE WAR OF THE FLOWERS
“Travel into another dimension is a popular fantasy ploy, but rarely accomplished with such humor, terror and even logic as in this stand-alone by bestseller Williams … Faerie turns out to be a real place. Applecore, a short-tempered, red-haired sprite… continually delights, as in her comment on a famous J.M. Barrie character: ‘`If you believe in fairies, clap your hands’? If you believe in fairies, kiss my rosy pink arse is more like it.’” —Publishers Weekly
“Williams displays a deft hand, creating an addictive world with its own history, mythology, internal rules, and rich, intricate culture. When I found myself reading “The War of the Flowers” while standing at the stove stirring some ramen noodles, I knew I was hooked.” —Salon.com
