What do Emile the beleaguered housecat, Thibault the royal dwarf, François the lovelorn blacksmith, a flock of loud-mouthed sparrows, and the great Maestro (formerly known as Barnabé the Stumblebum) all have in common? They all come around to Anne’s tavern when they need a pick-me-up, a hiding place, or a sympathetic ear. Anne’s benevolence, banter, beauty, and barley-beer are a balm to all… but that doesn’t mean she’ll take any bull! She’s the charismatic constant in these six tales of the adventures and follies of some of the Kingdom’s lesser-known (but no less colorful) cast of characters.
