Overview

A factory worker becomes a hero in a mystical world of adventure and danger, in this fantasy trilogy from the New York Times–bestselling author.

Gary Leger is desperate for adventure. Daydreaming and fantasy novels are his only escapes, and he spends much of his free time reading in the woods behind his house. That’s when adventure finds him. Or rather, that’s when he’s hit with a tranquilizer arrow . . .

When Gary comes to, he discovers he’s traveled to the land of Faerie, a world populated by creatures from his fantasy novels—and they need his help. Only Gary can wear the enchanted armor that will allow him to wield a magic spear. In a series of adventures, Gary will team up with a trouble-making leprechaun, an aloof elf, a surly dwarf, and more. Together they must face off against a fearsome witch, a deadly dragon, an army, and a wicked king to restore peace to the kingdom.

Praise for the Spearwielder’s Tale

“The book’s fast-paced, good-humored nature draws the reader in and makes the world of Faerie a fine place to visit.” —SF Site on The Woods Out Back

“Gary has a lively time of it in Faerie, which Salvatore recaptures with verve and wit and many nice touches. . . . A classic tale.” —Booklist on The Dragon’s Dagger
