Stinky and the Journotard (Stinky Stories) by Peter Grant (2 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Add a third wheel and the family circle runs like a flat tire. No one except Peyton Mayer wants Peyton as a weekend guest at the family cottage and yet, there he is. Peyton is a popular TV reporter, at least among people who enjoy his on air gaffes, but his ability to get into trouble bodes poorly for a relaxing weekend. Peyton and Stinky's cousins look for love in the wrong places and while no one's virtue is compromised, they would have had more fun listening to Peyton mispronounce the mayor's name on the eleven o'clock news. About Stinky Stories Stinky and Eddie appear in almost eighty comic short stories in the #1 bestselling Amazon series. Stinky is chatty and insouciant, and while Eddie may not say as much, when something needs to be done, he's already doing it. They're as close as Brooklyn and Queens and as unlikely to separate. Stinky doesn't go looking for trouble, but he can't hide from it. It's part of the "best looking man on the planet" package. As often ...

Prince Donald, the idealistic third son of the king of Westgrove, believes he may be the only one capable of protecting his country from an invasion spearheaded by an ancient, massive, and magical stone warrior known as the Warden of Mystic Defiance.
