The Missing Mallard

by Robert Dahlen

One would think that an auction of duck paraphernalia to help benefit the Darbyfield town library would not create that much excitement. Unfortunately for heiress Alice Peavley and her brilliant gnome valet Macalley, one of the items in the auction, a golden duck figurine, is attracting far too much attention...especially from a number of villains and scoundrels. Food fights, pixie sorceresses, mad scientists, adorable yet destructive automatons - can Alice and Macalley prevail, or has doom come to Darbyfield?

About the author

Fantasy novelist, all-around wisecracker, baker of cookies and penguin aficionado. Lives in California with lots of penguins (no surprise), a tablet stuffed with e-books and works in progress, a frighteningly large collection of Disney Infinity figures and a very nice hat. Hopefully working on more Monkey Queen stories (and other projects) as you read this.
