I am Princess Carlen Seepsen and I hate my life. My sisters keep making me act all prim and proper for high society, my father barely realizes I exist, and the high and mighty Edwart (Ahem, Edward) keeps insisting he's a gift to me. Oh, and I almost drowned because my family's ship sank. In a storm. On my sixteenth birthday. Except I didn't. A young man with a perfect chest, sea-green eyes, and a deep, delicious voice just pulled me to shore. I guess that part wasn't so bad. But did he have a fin? But now everything's falling apart. Something's in the ocean. Something, or someone, is sending storms to my kingdom and collapsing our society. And now my father's about to marry me off to (gasp) Edwart to keep me safe. When a sorceress offers me a chance to visit the king of the undersea kingdom, I've got to act. Running away means leaving my kingdom to ruin and worse, spending the next fifty years with a moron noble. But agreeing to the deal might cost me so much more than I ever imagined.

"This hilarious farce by the author of The Mystery of Irma Vep is about a husband and wife, both psychiatrists, who are each having an affair with a patient of the other who are also husband and wife! One patient is struggling to overcome her inability to have sex in bed and her compulsion to buy lawn mowers at Bloomingdale's.

Encyclopedic in its coverage, this one-of-a-kind reference is ideal for students, scholars, and others who need reliable, up-to-date information on folk and fairy tales, past and present. Folktales and fairy tales have long played an important role in cultures around the world.

This second, expanded edition of an award-winning reference will help students and teachers as well as storytellers, writers, and creative artists delve into this enchanting world and keep pace with its past and its many new facets. Alphabetically organized and global in scope, the work is the only multivolume reference in English to offer encyclopedic coverage of this subject matter. The four-volume collection covers national, cultural, regional, and linguistic traditions from around the world as well as motifs, themes, characters, and tale types. Writers and illustrators are included as are filmmakers and composers—and, of course, the tales themselves. The expert entries within volumes 1 through 3 are based on the latest research and developments while the contents of volume 4 comprises tales and texts. While most books either present readers with tales from certain countries or cultures or with thematic entries, this encyclopedia stands alone in that it does both, making it a truly unique, one-stop resource.
