Dark times have fallen on the Doughnut Kingdom, the usurper Queen Cordelia has summoned the Nightmare Knight and a legendary hero is needed. Cucumber would much rather be studying magic than fighting evil, but with his sister and new found friends by his side maybe they can defeat the Nightmare Knight and restore order to their kingdom.
Publisher’s Description:
The same old story.
An ancient evil resurrected, a world of dreams in peril . . . you know how it goes. What we need is a legendary hero, but what we’ve got is Cucumber, a boy who’s better suited to studying than monster-slaying. He’s just been accepted to the school of his dreams, but because his dad thinks his dreams are kind of lame, it’s up to him and his much more heroic sister, Almond, to save the world . . . even if that may be a little more complicated than they think.
