Book Description
Omar often gets into trouble due to his role as the world's greatest storyteller. The wrong tale at the wrong time told to the wrong audience can prove fatal. A slighted innkeeper threatens to kill Omar by tossing him out into the vicious storm that rages just outside the door of the inn. But this time, for a change, he also has the chance to redeem himself by using his gift. If Omar can top the most outrageous tales invented by the inn's guests, he may get away with his neck intact. Omar not only tells a series of tales that would astonish the most gifted bard, but corrects the errors of the others and weaves them all together into one absolutely compelling tale of adventure.
From the Publisher
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a craftily plotted, picaresque yarn. Here is Duncan, once again, forgoing the standard sword-and-sorcery devices and gifting us with a story wholely unpredictable, yet perfectly formed. This book should be required reading in Creative Tale-Telling 101. If you like it, also try Duncan's REAVER'S ROAD, from which the main character derives.
