Forsake the real life. Embrace the fantasy.

The Song of the Prophet has long foretold that an apocalypse of storms, pestilence and war would tear the land of Rhye asunder. The path to salvation is obscure - hope seems to lie in a mysterious saviour, somewhere beyond the Seventh Sea.

For friends Mustapha, Harold, Meadow and Dique, a moment of mischief leads to the greatest adventure of their lives. A simple heist turned sour hurls them into a monumental journey, culminating at the heart of Rhye's crisis. Along the way, all the existential questions are asked: Can true love heal the gravest ill? Will the Gods of old hear a solemn plea? Most importantly - can pixies survive without cheese or drQueeowseberry wine?

'The King of Rhye' is part fairy tale, part dark fantasy, part whimsy and all heart, as the glorious legacy of rock band Queen is realised in a full-blown literary adventure for the ages.
