That works. I'm not sure about the whole Heart of Rock blurb, though - it makes it sound more exciting than I think is warranted by the book - I don't want people expecting High Adventure, and getting a gentle little fairy tale.
What about this for the Heart of Rock blurb?
Quote:
Once upon a time, wizards carved hideous gargoyles and brought them to life to drive away their enemies. Years pass and the time comes when a brave cobbler must seek out the Heart of Rock to save his kingdom, but by doing so he puts the gargoyle kingdom into crisis, for the gargoyles cannot live without their talisman.
Heart of Rock is three interconnected short stories that look at the question: when one questing hero finds a magical amulet, what happens to those who've lost it?
