ONE WRONG TURN OPENS THE ROAD TO WORLDS THAT SHOULD NOT EXIST.
Farmer Eben Smith is tired of being told to destroy good crops while people go hungry. He loads his wagon, heads for the city and reaches a crossroads unlike any on Earth—four roads, four kinds of travelers and four realities with very different ideas about trade.
Eben has produce to sell and a Yankee instinct for a bargain. But every deal he makes sends another world spinning in an unexpected direction, and the farther he travels from the road he knows, the stranger the consequences become.
Four roads. Impossible customers.
A wagon full of ordinary goods.
And one practical farmer who may be the most disruptive force at the crossroads.
Witty, inventive and full of surprising turns, The Crossroads is a fantasy adventure where everyday common sense collides with alternate realities—and commerce becomes the most unpredictable magic of all.
Three complete fantasy adventures in one volume. Also included are:
Borrowed Glory — An elderly woman receives forty-eight hours of youth, beauty and wishes—and discovers that borrowed time can hold a lifetime of love.
The Devil’s Rescue — A shipwreck survivor is saved by a mysterious vessel, only to find himself gambling for his life in a supernatural bargain at sea.
