It was a normal summer afternoon when Mona and Bitsy left the mall to head home after their day of shopping. At least, it seemed normal except for the thunderstorm and the possible tornado, which picked up their Prius and set them down in the middle of a wheat field. Oh, and those calls from North Dakota that Mona thought were a wrong number, they might have had something to do with where the girls landed.

Brandon closes his eyes in fear and when he opens them, he finds himself in Greedy Gulch, the 1880s boomtown from the novel he is reading. The people of that world call him the new Tale Spinner and expect him to finish the tale.

Influenced by two huge gods of "funtastical" literature - Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett - Clerb is a humorous alien time travel adventure story... involving yoghurt!
