The Invisible Tower
“It had been through a lot but it was still in one piece. Lance put it in gear and headed toward the road, which, without an evil gang of tornadoes chasing them, they arrived at in a few minutes.
Thumb moved to a cup holder by the gearshift and introduced himself to Kynder properly.
Kynder shook his head. Not because he was talking with a man who was only a few inches tall, but because he knew who this man was.
“Oh my God! You’re the Mr. Thumb from when Artie came to us!”
“That’s correct, sir!”
...Kynder let out a small laugh and then asked, “So you and the kids—you’re friends?”
“Very much so. May I bring you up to speed? I give you my word that I’ll only tell the truth.”
“Why not. Go ahead.”
And so, with a few flourishes from Lance, Thumb told Kynder everything. By the time they pulled up to the Invisible Tower, Kynder had learned that there was a place on earth called the Otherworld; that Artie was King Arthur the Second; that Merlin was the Merlin; that Thumb and Artie had traveled via moongate to this Otherworld place; that his son had yanked an ancient sword from a stone and slain a baby dragon with it; and that Thumb, Artie, Kay, and the jackrabbit had just been on a crazy adventure—involving a million pigeons, a canoe, a girl who lived underwater, a giant bird, and an angry green dragon—to retrieve the legendary sword Excalibur.MoreLess
