Second Chance Magic: Whirled Discovery

Sometimes a flying boxcar just isn't enough—but maybe a magic carpet will do. Three temporary wishes may be hovering nearby in the space between atoms and the expanse of vast prime numbers. The Queen of Neptune is missing as the summer unfolds and somewhere between fax and fantasy (a few leagues give or take) perhaps the golden scale of a maybe-dragon can be your passport to a new and more exciting life.
Join Swallowtail as he retraces the steps of a long-forgotten winged hero in a circuitous journey of whirled discovery. End product may also contain: Spirit horses, broken leases, magic carpets (repossessed), sorcerers of unconfirmed alignment (now retired), herbalist healers, multiple pocket watches (offered as-is) and quite a bit of tea (technically, infusions). Secret to St. Elmo's Fire not available in all areas.

Author Brian Parrish is an awed believer in the power of story and a regular patron of the dreaming. However, he's best known as a virtual stunt pilot, human cannonball coach, Indianapolis slot car racer and tender tiger tamer—in a parallel universe, that is, where his Elkhart Blue 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS has been impounded for extraordinary parking fee accumulation. In this one, he scribbles the odd story and subscribes to the International Psychic Cat Network. He lives in the rolling red hills of Virginia with an ambling caravan of family, friends and familiars.
