The Journey of Half-a-Fool
In the Boondoggle Hob’s Circus Astounding, the traveling circus under the Hollow Hills, you will one day be an animal tamer and a clown, a worker and a good luck charm, always there to notice something awkward or misplace a tool — but not now. At the end of your journey is the Circus Astounding. May Eve, when lovers slip away and find one another in the fields and the forest groves, when the ancient pulse of the earth quickens after its winter sleep, when foxes hunt and also things less canny, old things, true things, things that will grind your bones for bread or make you love them.
