About The Crane and the Wolf (Unabridged)

On your marks.... Get set.... Bake for your lives! Join Opal, Carmen and Boffo as they compete in a baking competition the likes of which as never been seen in the free city! For centuries, Lady Crane has carefully baked cakes, pastries and whatever else the Wolf craves on the full moon to stop his transformation into the Archipelago’s most bloodthirsty werewolf, but the time has come for her to hire an assistant. If a baker can satisfy the Wolf three full moons in a row, the job is theirs, as is one of the mansions built at the very top of the hill and all the wealth and fame that comes with it. If no baker can satisfy the Wolf, the enchantments on the doors to the mansion will keep the slaughter from spilling out of the kitchen and into the streets of S’kar-Vozi…hopefully. With mouth-watering descriptions of full-moon feasts, action-packed egg-gathering, and more than a dash of the macabre, The Crane and the Wolf is the fantasy bake-off you might not have ordered, but will devour all the same! About the author: J. Darris Mitchell lives in Austin, TX with his darling wife, two young sons, and a garden overflowing with vegetables, flowers, birds and butterflies. He is an avid birder, believes wrestling is real, and makes a pesto and brisket pizza on cold-fermented sourdough that is simply to die for.
