Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Elven Princess
Author: Wesley Allison Categories: Adventure, Fantasy, Fiction Published: 2009 Pages: 69 Language: English Tags: Adventures | FantasyBook Description:
Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Elven Princess is a comedic fantasy adventure by Wesley Allison, and it is one of the most uniquely narrated stories in the genre. The tale is told entirely through the voice of Eaglethorpe Buxton himself — a self-proclaimed legendary adventurer and storyteller who is, by all other accounts, an outrageous liar, a boastful braggart, and a man who absolutely cannot be trusted near a freshly baked pie.
The story follows Eaglethorpe as he journeys through a world of goblins, magic, and mystery, claiming to have rescued either a poor orphan or an elven princess — though the truth depends entirely on how much you trust him as a narrator. As the tale unfolds, readers begin to suspect that things may not have gone quite the way Eaglethorpe describes, and that suspicion is exactly where the fun lives.
The brilliance of the book lies in its narrative construction. Allison has crafted a story that works on two levels at once — as a straightforward fantasy adventure and as a slow-building comic joke with a punchline waiting in the epilogue. The more closely you read, the funnier it becomes, rewarding attentive readers with layer after layer of subtle humor.
Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Elven Princess is a quick, charming, and endlessly clever read for fans of humorous fantasy. It is the kind of book that leaves you chuckling long after you finish it, and it makes a perfect introduction to Wesley Allison's wider world of fantasy storytelling.
