24 curiously questioning tales to help you stay human in a world ruled by maniacs.
A vengeful Troll spins the wheel of Universal Justice after a young family's home is foreclosed and they are left homeless.
A Successful Young Woman's life spirals out of control when a Fairy gives her the gift (or is it the curse?) of empathy.
What on Earth (and Heaven) can God and the Devil do about a man who is too wicked even for hell?
Step into the nightmare that is The Factory – no child leaves alive.
We discover that God and the Devil were once friends and partners in the world creation business. What went wrong?
A brutal and selfish Banker kills the last Unicorn and is cursed by an angry Fairy.
The Perfect Parents turn out to be anything but perfect.
What happens when the Devil reclaims the soul of his favourite politician – his Special Child?
A Rich Man is forced to confront the corruption that lives in soul - with fatal consequences.
What will the Greedy One Percent do when a Good Man exposes them as the murderous psychopaths that they are?
And many more curiously magical tales...
Welcome to Anywhere. A world ruled over by a tiny elite of dangerous psychopaths - a world where might is right and money is king. Welcome to a land where love, compassion and the Soul lie forgotten, replaced by a shallow culture of unsustainable consumption - and only Fairies and Trolls, mocked and despised by humans who have been lulled into complacency by shiny bling and celebrity, fight for decency and goodness.
Welcome to Anywhere. Welcome to your own world. Here and now.
Editorial reviews
"Brilliant comic technique, and a glorious sense of moral outrage at the current mess in which our country seems mired, combine here to make a unique reading experience. Often laugh-out-loud funny, the real-life characters behind these innocuous fairy tales and fables hit you by surprise, a series of sharp rocks hidden in those snowballs. Amazingly, with all the faux-naievete and children's book elements gleefully displayed here, the writing never becomes twee or condescending. I don't know where this writer's been all his life, but I intend to catch up with him, and keep an eye on where he's headed next!... Bravo, Mr. Hennerly! Stay angry, and keep your books coming" -Vine Voice
"The most spiritually and intellectually worthwhile and inspiring read I have encountered in a very long time ever since my days as a theological studies student. To me it is a humanist masterpiece on par with my favorite classists such as Faulkner, Lawrence and Bellow. It subverts conventional morals and doctrines while anchoring the plot development and the characters upon what I would call authentic virtues, Intuitive Knowledge and Intuitive Truth. Hennerley speaks Truth in this world of lies that shackle us from birth and asphyxiate us into death, all the while conspiring against our very vitality of the spirit." -US REVIEWS
