1926: Penelope Collins is the only one who remember the folk and fairy tales of the world. When bullied Penelope lashes out and punches her teacher, she cracks open the boundary between the Realm of Men and an invisible isle off the coast of Edinburgh, Scotland where the forgotten tales are kept.

Like Prometheus bringing fire to earth, Penelope must bring the tales back to the Realm of Men before humanity is lost, but the tales have moved on since humanity has forgotten them and none of the fairy and folk tale inhabitants are quite how Penelope remembers them.

A rogue sprite follows her journey and photographs her quest to find the the cursed king who kidnapped the Story Weaver. Now it's up to lonely, volatile Penelope to save the Story weaver, the stories, and the world from looming destruction.

The Story Weaver Chronicles: Penelope and the Hob King combines the ancient myths of Mesopotamia and the fairy tales of Northern Europe. It is illustrated with over 40 beautiful photos and is the first in a photographic trilogy.
