The Stone Giant

Balumnia, Book 3

By: James P. Blaylock

Narrated by: Malk Williams

Theophile Escargot, cast out of Twombly Town for the crime of stealing his own pie, bade a midnight farewell to his unfeeling neighbours and set out on a journey to fabled Balumnia. There he would clash with the master of an elfin airship and a conniving, marble-stealing dwarf; battle to save Leta, a beautiful maid possessed by a malevolent witch; discover magical powers that could make him a hero; and unearth secrets of the legendary land itself.

Critic reviews

"A magical world, magically presented... having journeyed there, you will not wish to leave, nor ever to forget." (Philip K. Dick)

great narration really enjoyed it

the narrator was perfect for this work. it was so alive. the elves were charming

A Fine Prequel

A gem for fans of Blaylock's early fantasy work. Thoroughly enjoyable, and a kind of literary "comfort food". P.G. Wodehouse meets H.G. Wells meets Tolkien.
