In Magical Mystery Stories three tales, designed to tax the brain cells and involving mystical elements that more than hint at the supernatural, are cleverly placed side by side in an excellent value three-in-one combo that any lover of the truly otherworldly will find hard to put down.
From the opening pages of the intense, dark The Conjurer's Game, through to the bone-chilling The Thirteenth Owl, and finally on to the captivating Words of Stone, the three stories ignite the imagination and take the reader into a strange, and at times dangerous, world where anything can, and does, happen.
