It's easy keeping secrets when you don't have a tongue. The mute dwarf Dim has lived many lives, yet somehow he always ends up alone. Once upon a time, he traveled with a band of thieves. When an ill-fated affair went sour, Dim was left disfigured and broken. He became the Phantom, a masked figure haunting the catacombs beneath the capital city of Platessa. Fate would introduce him to the Eastern Kingdom's new queen, the brilliant, enchanting Bella. Their burgeoning romance was a tale as old as time-and it ended in tragedy. Now amidst a zombie plague, Dim returns to Platessa with a motley band of companions. The lovesick dwarf Grouchy. The ferocious werewolf Red. The treacherous Queen Adara. Together, they must find a cure for the zombie curse before the monsters overrun the entire city. Amidst the carnage rises the most lethal threat yet, a demented amalgamation of the corpses of queens past-Cinderella, Rapunzel, Briar Rose, Thousandfurs, and Dim's own beloved Bella. Dim's past has finally come back to haunt him beneath the relentless onslaught of That Malicious Storm . . . The Scary Tales is the perfect series for lovers of fairy tales, fans of zombie horror, and anyone that enjoys an epic fantasy adventure.
