Dragons at Crumbling Castle
This is a wonderfully funny collection of short stories by master storyteller Sir Terry Pratchett, featuring dragons, dinosaurs, cavemen and car races! In the title story, King Arthur is informed that dragons have invaded crumbling castle. Ralph, 'a small boy in a suit of mail much too big for him,' is chosen by the king to deal with the problem (mainly because no one else is available) so he sets out with his talking donkey. The collection includes fourteen fantastically funny stories, including The Great Speck, Hunt the Snorry, Tales of the Carpet People, Hercules the Tortoise, Dok the Caveman, The Big Race, The Great Egg-dancing Championship, Edwo the Boring Knight, The 59A Bus Goes Back in Time, The Abominable Snowman, The Blackbury Monster, and Father Christmas Goes to Work at the Zoo. The stories were written when the author was a teenaged newspaper reporter and feature a memorable cast of inept wizards, sensible heroes, and unusually adventurous tortoises.
