People say, if Charlie Pratt had a penny for every blunder, he'd fill his pockets and then misplace his trousers.
In October the Campton river clears, and the water level drops offering a perfect excuse to get out in the crisp morning air and scour the rocks for snagged hooks and toads. It's about as close as Charlie has come to magic... until he meets the strange Dalia Addair.
While trying to learn more about her, he unwittingly slots himself into her magical trial—a trial she's spent her whole life preparing for. He gets a day.
But something's wrong; the trial holds its own secrets, and powerful forces will do whatever it takes to stop them.
The only way to survive is to finish the trials and block the way forever.
But first, Charlie and Dalia have to learn to work together—if they don't strangle each other first.
Quirky, fast-paced, and brimming with humour and charm, Fableman is a story that shows how even the most unlikely hero will step forward to do what it takes—when there's a ten-foot troll on his ass.
