The Wishing Tree

When Keith Knight sets out one morning to buy a loaf of bread and a tin of custard he falls into a hole outside the supermarket and ends up in a world of Dragons, Swamp Donkeys, Leprechauns and Witches. The locals soon regard him to be the 'Knight from afar' whom the prophesy foretells will lift the many curses that afflict the land. Keith, only intent on returning home must find the fabled witch, Baba Yaga, who lives in the forest of certain death. To secure a passage home, he reluctantly embarks on a quest to rid the land of the evil Mushroom King and all his heinous curses. Peter Nuttall, writer of ‘Cinderella and the Pantomime Thief’, brings the same flair for humorous parody to his first novel.
