Early Misadventures of Toffee

Early Misadventures of Toffee

Henry Farrell

She's the woman of his dreams. Literally. Marc Pillsworth has always been plagued by one particular visitor in his nightly visions: Toffee, a wildly impossible dream girl with a talent for chaos and a smile that promises trouble. But when dreams bleed into waking life, Marc discovers that Toffee refuses to stay where she belongs. Now she's materialized in the real world, and she's brought her wacky supernatural antics with her. These two early tales from the golden age of pulp fantasy capture the delicious absurdity of a man who cannot control his own subconscious. Toffee bursts from the pages like a fever dream given form, part temptress, part chaos agent, entirely unforgettable. Henry Farrell writes with the breezy confidence of a writer who knows exactly how much nonsense his readers want. For anyone craving the vanished charm of 1940s adventure fiction, where the impossible was just another Tuesday and beautiful women could step out of your sleep and into your life.
