Wolves might be friends, old grandmothers might be cannibals, and the idiot might be the wisest man in the room. Step into this strange and wondrous world and find yourself at the waystone, a boundary between the real world and the world of story, where every road you take leads to danger and potential rewards. This is a short guide for your survival. If you succeed, you might just find the fountain of youth, unimaginable riches, the man or woman of your dreams... and something even more lasting. If you enjoy the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tales, you’ll love this book.
