Nightcap and Other Stories — Paul John Hausleben

Nightcap and Other Stories, The Fantasy Collection, is a collection of three novellas from the master storyteller, Paul John Hausleben. Nightcap - The title story is a mind-bender. The opening novella tells the story of the strange events that occur when a lonely and road-weary, but successful traveling salesman, wanders into a hotel bar late one night for a simple nightcap to shake the boredom and to help him sleep. From there, the story takes a surprise turn and in the end, the theme of the story is really about finding true love beyond time and comprehension, while bending your mind and leaving you guessing as to how it all began, and more importantly, where it all ends. The Kingdom of Aedan -The second novella is a fantasy story for children of all ages. A story, full of knights and heroes of courage and honor, guided by a wise wizard and outwitting a crestfallen king, in order to save good and purge evil, all narrated by one of the author's most beloved characters. Great fun for everyone from the ages of five to one hundred and five! The Lamp Upon the Table â€" concludes this remarkable collection with a ghost story embedded within hackneyed old legends and folklore, heavily laced with romance with a surprise ending that is sure to make you scratch your head and wonder. Of course, Paul John Hausleben adds his own special touches and the author caps it all off with an afterword detailing his own strange experiences while composing the book. The entire collection is a magical ride through the world of fantasy and the unknown, and is sure to please readers of the author's fantasy work, as well as fans of his other genres.
