When Phillens Martens arrives clutching an apple-shaped brooch, they’re drawn into a tangle of illusionists, collectors, and the ancient title of Prince of the Apple Towns — a title that tends to cause chaos for whoever holds it.
Witty, wondrous, and brimming with invention, Prince of the Apple Towns is the first adventure in James and Jones — a whimsical fantasy series about a not-so-ordinary shop, its impossible cases, and the unlikely team who take them on.
