The Book of Unwritten Tales takes place in a strange fantasy world with scurrile, likable characters and dazzling dialogues. „We are big fantasy fans“, Marc König and Jan Theysen explain, the founders of KING Art. „The Book of Unwritten Tales is our sympathetic view reegarding the little inconsistencies and strangenesses, every fantasy-fan knows. It's a humorous homage to the great novels, movies and games of the genre.“
The Book of Unwritten Tales narrates the exciting, turbulent chase after a legendary artefact. A very old Gremlin-archeologist is the only one who knows, where to find IT. A wizard and a big husky troll kidnapped him, to tell them, how to get it. An involuntary trio of heroes – a fairy, a gnome and a human – head off to save the old archeologist and the endangered whole world.
