Please Welcome Frank!
You know Snow White's dwarfs? Well, Frank is one of them.
(Yeah, I know, you're probably wondering why he isn't named some random adjective, but there's an explanation for that in The Hero's Guide to Storming the Castle).
Occupation: Expert (at whatever you need done)
Affiliation: Sylvarian Dwarves
Kingdom of Origin: Sylvaria
Current Residence: A hovel in the Sylvarian forest just outside the Woodland Estate that once belonged to him and his fellow dwarfs.
Other Known Dwarfs: Flik, Frak, Frid, Ferd, Flup, Fork
Longtime Foe: Duncan (a.k.a., Dumb-can, Dunce-man, the Idiot Prince)
Likes: Snow White, backpacks, pluralizing with a V
Dislikes: Strangers who ask questions, historical re-enactments, humans who squat to talk to him
Signature Move: The Whipping Pinwheel Ax-Spin
Quote: “Why are you still talking to me?”
Little Known Fact: People assume that Frank is the leader of the Sylvarian dwarfs, as he is the one who most frequently communicates with humans. In reality, he is the lowest ranked. Because Sylvarian dwarfs hate communicating with humans.

Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You’ve never heard of them, have you? These are the princes who saved Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Snow White, and Rapunzel, respectively, and yet, thanks to those lousy bards who wrote the tales, you likely know them only as Prince Charming. But all of this is about to change.
Rejected by their princesses and cast out of their castles, the princes stumble upon an evil plot that could endanger each of their kingdoms. Now it’s up to them to triumph over their various shortcomings, take on trolls, bandits, dragons, witches, and other assorted terrors, and become the heroes no one ever thought they could be.

I love this series. I think the grumpy dwarves are a hilarious twist on Snow White.
ReplyDeletehehe yes, I love the grumpy dwarves! I like how they're still so loyal to Snow (but not so much her prince)
DeleteOh, I love the dwarfs

Hey, Small, do you know if they are making an audiotbook fo this? I love the previos one.
