Tales of Tie-Ins - Short Story Collections Emily Martha Sorensen

Eleven short stories. Six series. Clearly this author has written way too many tie-in short stories for reasonability.

Tie-ins for the Wicked Witches of Restva series:

"Ogre in Boots"
What is this cat named Puss, and why is he bothering Rulisa's father? Could it be another assassin sent from Black Magic Academy?


Tie-ins for The End in the Beginning series:

"The Weeds within the Rulership"

Raneh's really worried that she has magic and it's forbidden. But she gets a slight distraction when the boy next door gives her a bouquet of weeds.


"The Secrets from the Rulership"

The Ruler learns the secret of the Keepers, and decides what will be necessary for the good of the world.


"The Numbers across the Rulership"

Now, hold on! What's this nonsense about Hurik taking the oath of status? He has a better idea!


Tie-ins for the Fairy Senses series:

"Fairy Feet"

When playing tag, three girls run into a fairy with big feet. Oops! Is the fairy hurt?


Tie-ins for the Dragon Eggs series:

"Dragon's Dawn"

Tomorrow is her wedding, and Rose is really scared. She's about to marry a man she barely knows so that they can become parents to a baby dragon.


Tie-ins for the Trilogy of a Teenage Werevulture series:

"Triumph of a Teenage Werevulture"

In a world where everyone is a fantasy creature, Lisette had the misfortune to be turned into a werevulture. On top of that, now her date is dragging her to a football game! But if the rival team is cheating, well, clearly somebody needs to save the day.


Tie-ins for The Numbers Just Keep Getting Bigger series:

"One Silly Chatterbox That Won't Stop Talking"

How in the world does one get Henina to stop talking long enough to teach that child how to read?


"Three Little Stones That Said the Wrong Thing"

Henina's not going to let her older sister marry the wrong man. Even if it means upsetting her whole family!


"Four Hardened Criminals on a Dangerous Street"

Henina's sense of self-preservation could be higher, admittedly.


"Six Shiny Silver Coins and the Ridiculous Ruckus They Caused"

"The Fates see all and hear all. The king will perform an act of great generosity before the sun sets this day."

The king is horrified to hear this, and immediately throws six silver coins out into the crowd to get the prophecy over with before something worse happens.

Naturally, Henina catches one.

And, naturally, pandemonium ensues.



Includes the following funny drabbles (100 word short stories):

"An Alternate Solution to the Sleeping Curse"
"Puss in Oops"
"Entrance Interview"
"The Novice at the Rulership"
"The Painting like the Rulership"
"Fairy Fingers"
"Fairy Stink"
"Dragon's Yowl"
"Trials of a Teenage Shapeshifter"
"Trials of a Teenage Zombie"
"Seven Shameless Scamps Looking Pitiful"
"Thirteen Years After a Sister's Wedding"
"Fifteen Problems in One Hundred Words"

Most can stand on their own just fine, and all of them will add new fun and insights to the worlds they're set in.

The question is . . . are you ready to laugh?
