Welcome to the wonderful world of animals!

In Animal Magnetism, author Staci Layne Wilson has written a omnibus of tales – or is that tails? – that will enchant animal lovers of all ages and from all walks of life. Here you will find a delightful hodge-podge of stories ranging from horror to mystery to fable... there's even a romance full of "puppy love"!

In The Duchess of Dook, it's Harry Potter meets The Ferret Chronicles meets The Princess & The Pea as Dauphina Griselda, a beautiful young royal weasel, turns her kingdom upside down in her uproarious search for a suitor.

The Case of the Crooked Colt blends horse racing with mystery and skullduggery. Other horsy stories include Patches: A Christmas Pony, and Thundering Hooves, the goose-bumping tale of a ghostly stallion on the trail of an old cowboy.

Cats are everywhere in Animal Magnetism – they show up as everything from ancient Egyptian mummies (Mummy Dearest) to feline detectives in the spoofs The Big Catnap and The Maltese Kitty. Once you've met Philip Margay and Sam Spayed, you'll never look at those old black and white movies in the same way again!

Animals of the supernatural more your speed? Then you're sure to enjoy the dragons in Char Chan and the Case of the Missing Heir, and the horned equines in Be Kind to Unicorns.

Many more stories, plus an insightful foreword by October Pawlik of The Biggest Little Ferret Shelter.
