Publisher's summary

What happened to Grendle the Shopkeeper?

Narrowly missing a splat of ectoplasm - or Bernard, as he was more commonly known - Ronnie entered the shop to the clanging of the little silver bell.

His brow furrowed as he absently scratched his cheek. Grendle the shopkeeper always came out after the tolling of the first bell. Always.

Later on, the local press interviews the Skullenian residents after an incident at the fountain: A happy young couple has discovered a cadaver while taking a moonlit stroll through the cemetery.

What links the strange events? Is anything else going to happen? Can I write any more of this nonsense without giving the game away?

Someone's going to have find out what's going on, and in Skullenia, that can only mean one thing: Ollie and the boys have another puzzle to solve.

A comedy of horrors, or one frightening comedy

Once upon a time, in the delightfully quirky realm of Skullenia, where the boundaries between the mundane and the mystical were as thin as the pages of a well-read book, there resided a shopkeeper named Grendle. Now, if there's one thing to be said about Grendle, it's that he was as reliable as a clockwork dragon when it came to emerging from his shop at the precise chime of the silver bell. But on this day, dear reader, something was amiss. Oh yes, Ronnie, a regular denizen of the town, observed with no small amount of furrowed brow and itchy cheek that Grendle was conspicuously absent at the usual bell toll. Enter intrigue, stage left!

Fear not, for author Tony Lewis takes us on a merry romp through the streets and mysteries of Skullenia in "Wuthering Frights," the third installment of the Skullenia series. As the plot, much like a mischievous poltergeist, starts to manifest in unexpected ways, we're led down a path adorned with tombstones and moonlit walks – for what could be more romantic than stumbling upon a cadaver during a moonlit stroll through a cemetery? Ah, love is in the air, even if it's mingling with the scent of decay.

And thus, our Skullenian heroes – chief among them the intrepid Ollie and his band of merry compatriots – find themselves once again entwined in a tapestry of puzzling events. The threads of this tapestry are spun with equal parts whimsy and wit, as only a skilled wordsmith can weave. Tony Lewis, with a nod and a wink to the great Terry Pratchett himself, crafts a narrative that dances between the ethereal and the everyday with the grace of a cat on a rooftop.

But let us not overlook the bard of the audio, Toby J. Smith, whose dulcet tones bring the story to life. With a voice that could charm a banshee into silence and make even the most cantankerous gnome crack a smile, Smith guides us through the tale as if we were fellow passengers on the ghost train of Skullenia's mysteries.

So, dear reader, if you find yourself yearning for a tale where the supernatural and the absurd engage in a spirited waltz, "Wuthering Frights" might just be the ticket to Skullenia you've been waiting for. As Grendle's whereabouts and the cemetery's secrets remain shrouded in intrigue, one thing becomes clear: in Skullenia, the extraordinary is as ordinary as a cup of tea on a rainy day.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
