Fowl, Swine and Things That Send Shivers Down Your Spine (Book Two: The Hole Stories‪)‬

Fowl, Swine and Things That Send Shivers Down Your Spine picks up right where The King of Arugula left off. Having just saved the town of Arugula, restored Twig’s sight and exposed the sinister William Ernest Fang for the person he really is, Onus and Twig are ready to get home and go to bed. Unfortunately, a run in with a cat named Lemy sends them far off course...so far in fact, they end up in a strange town called Cygnus Monde, where the streets are overrun with hair-stealing swans and the adults are oddly fixated on one thing: a place called Tchaikovsky’s. When Twig catches swan lice and refuses to move because of how uncomfortable his head is, Onus must leave his friend and find a cure. Along the way he finds a pigpen full of kids, a man dressed up like a pack of gum, a shop filled with animals that look like statues, worms the size of jet airplanes and a “next to impossible” truth that puts the “hole” situation in perspective – swan lice and strange residents are the least of Cygnus Monde’s problems.
