Summary

Now years have passed and strange things are happening in Illyria beautiful music deep in the forest, rumours of rivers flowing with gold, sightings of a king gone mad and ruling a land of nonsense. Could these things be related? All will be explained, with a fair few songs and a deal of good humour, in Glyn Maxwell's darkly comic escapade.
