I post this link merely as a cultural curiosity and not so that anyone could print one if, say, whistles were banned. Obviously that would be wrong.

May his retirement be very, very long and may he never sleep more than an hour of it. May he wake up sweating to find his only company is the silence of vengeful ghosts.

Also may a Minnesota tick give him a red meat allergy, because he seems like the type who would absolutely melt down.

#Booksky If you want your @tkingfisher.com a bit Pratchett-y, Nine Goblins is the story for you! Quick, charming, and very funny, it also gives you all that goblin goodness you crave without those problematic tropes that often get attached to the species. I was delighted.
