Bounty: A Mocklore Collection

Mocklore Chronicles

by Tansy Rayner Roberts

Bounty Fenetre isn't a bounty hunter.

Delta Void isn't a mercenary.

But trouble follows both of them, everywhere they go… It's not easy to make an honest living in the tiny magical empire of Mocklore.

Six stories of adventure, magic, chaos and chainmail lingerie, where fairy tales are bad for your love life, and shoes can solve anything.

I read this and I want Tansy to sit down and write me a million Delta and Bounty stories, and stories about all their friends, and basically just TANSY GIMME MORE MOCKLORE.

[Paul · Rating 5 out of 5]

A series of short stories about Bounty, a minor character in the novels. A deeper look into the Other Realm.

[Emma · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is such a fun read, with interesting female characters and a magical landscape which doesn't take itself to seriously.
