Fabylon is a mythical kingdom with a king who has the peculiar magic talent of removing his kingdom to another site, beyond the mountains, whenever he becomes alarmed. All very well when danger threatens, but a nervous king can make daily life a bit jumpy for the citizenry ("out and back three times since Christmas," one man complains). And the present king has three good reasons for a bad case of nerves---his children. Princess Rosetta likes to wander off and pretend she's a shepherdess or something whenever life at the castle gets boring. Prince Alaric has a habit of making friends with the kind of people who don't like friendliness and who turn him into a frog. Prince Conrad, heir to the throne, is so intent on developing serenity (so that he won't be like his father and use the "removal" magic too often) that he is turning into a bore and a lump of ice. The resolution of all these royal family problems makes for enticing fun as the highly original and highly talented Nicholas Stuart Gray spoofs the usual and expected cast of fairy tale characters in his wonderfully witty way.
