As Isabella and her grouchy, cat-like companion set off to save the village from an entrepreneurial villain running a goblin-fruit Ponzi scheme, Darkshire's tale revels in the ancient books and arcane folklore of a new and original kind of enchantment.
A delightful and entertaining story of self-discoveryas well as fungus, capitalism, and sorceryIsabella Nagg and the Pot of Basil is a story for those who can't help but find magic even in the oddest and most baffling circumstances.
