The Magic of Home

an Uncollected Anthology story

A young elf risks everything to save a magical creature imprisoned in chrome and steel.

Twig never planned to return to Moretown Bay. To the makeshift family of misfits and hustlers and working girls she’d abandoned long ago. But when Twig and her friend find themselves fleeing for their lives, she runs to the only person she hopes she can still count on—the dwarf who rescued Twig from the streets and gave her a home.

A dwarf with a bad temper and a long memory, and no good reason to give Twig a second chance.

“I’ve been a fan of Annie Reed’s short stories for a long time.” –Marcelle Dubé, author of The Shoeless Kid

“You can’t go wrong with Annie Reed. Her deftly-crafted tales—with characters as memorable as the stories themselves—far surpass most of what’s out there. She deserves a wide audience.” –Michael J. Totten, author of Resurrection
