The robe of skulls - 1

All is not well in the crumbling castle high above the mountain village of Fracture.

The sorceress Lady Lamorna has her heart set on a new robe.

A very expensive new robe. To get the cash she will stop at nothing, including kidnapping, blackmail and more than a little black magic.

But she reckons without the heroic Gracie Gillypot, not to mention a gallant if rather scruffy prince, two chatty bats, the wickedest stepsister ever, a troll with a grudge - and some very Ancient crones.
