This is a must-have set for readers looking for tales of hope and redemption from the master of heart-warming fiction, TJ Klune. Presented in a gorgeous slipcase collection, featuring classic artwork from the original books.
The House in the Cerulean Sea
Linus Baker leads a quiet life. At forty, he has a tiny house with a devious cat and his beloved records for company. And at the Department in Charge of Magical Youth, he’s spent many dull years monitoring their orphanages.
Then one day, Linus is summoned by Extremely Upper Management and given a highly classified assignment. He must travel to an orphanage where six dangerous children reside, including the Antichrist. There, Linus must somehow determine if they could bring on the end of days. But their guardian, charming and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus, will do anything to protect his wards. As Arthur and Linus grow ever closer, Linus must choose between duty and his dreams.
Under the Whispering Door
When a reaper comes to collect Wallace from his own sparsely-attended funeral, Wallace is outraged. But he begins to suspect she’s right, and he is in fact dead. Then when Hugo, owner of a most peculiar tea shop, promises to help him cross over, Wallace reluctantly accepts the truth. Yet even in death, he refuses to abandon his life – even though he'd had no time for frivolities like fun and friends. But as Wallace drinks tea and talks to his customers, he wonders if he was missing something.
The feeling grows as he shares jokes with the resident ghost, manifests embarrassing footwear and notices the stars. When he’s given one week to pass through the door to the other side, Wallace sets about living a lifetime in just seven days.
In the Lives of Puppets
A small tree-house has become home to a human named Victor and three robots – a pleasantly sadistic nurse machine, a small vacuum eager for love and attention, and a fatherly inventor-android named Giovanni Lawson. Together, they’re a family, hidden and safe.
One day, Vic salvages an unfamiliar android, labelled ‘HAP’ and learns that he and Gio share a dark past. Then Hap unwittingly reveals their location, and Gio is captured by robots from his former life. The unconventional family must travel across hostile territory to save him from decommissioning, or worse. Their destination: the City of Electric Dreams. Along the way, Vic must decide if he can handle his feelings for Hap – even if they come with strings attached.
