Overview
What do you do when a banshee asks for asylum?
John Berwick was hoping for a quiet family reunion in Derbyshire. Instead, he gets:
- A banshee who wants to become human
- A fairy with attitude problems
- A reality-TV narcissist turned dragon
- A genie dictator with a flair for theatrical cruelty
- And a soap-opera-obsessed tyrant who rewrites the laws of the universe for entertainment
The resistance consists of disgruntled churchgoers, reluctant marriage counsellors, and two dangerously competent twins raised by a witch.
As dragons gather in the Austrian Alps, Paris burns, and ancient magical laws begin to tighten like a noose, one question becomes unavoidable:
What happens when a being bound by bargains decides to gamble anyway?
The Banshee at the Bus Stop blends myth, satire, political absurdity, multiverse chaos, and reluctant heroism into a fast-moving fantasy adventure where gods bicker, mortals adapt, and even genies must answer to older laws.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- Modern mythological fantasy
- Multiverse adventures
- Dark humour and political satire
- Found-family dynamics
- Powerful women who solve problems with axes
