Tales of Erets Brian France

Tales of Erets is a story about the change of a person's soul that comes from a difficult journey. When a person goes through adversity, that same person will grow and learn so that they will handle the next adversity better than before. This story of a man named Emuoy is one such story. Emuoy is a hard working dirt farmer who has always had problems in his life. He is both cynical and pessimistic. In this story, Emuoy takes a journey to learn that life is not so bad. In fact, he finds out that life is actually pretty good. He has a friend Tafnam who is always happy and tries to let Emuoy know the joy of life. Emuoy isn't interested in anything that Tafnam has to say on the subject, at least not until the end, after Emuoy's journey. The story starts where Emuoy is about as far down as he can get, or so he thinks. He is about to lose everything. Through strange magic Emuoy gets sucked into a different world where he finds that he can have more troubles than he ever thought possible. First he finds dangerous plants in this new world which cause much pain. Next he encounters a people who have very treacherous and deceiving ways. He also learns not to do things that he knows are wrong because the consequences that result are far worse than the consequences of just simply doing the right thing. Emuoy gets into fights and almost gets killed several times in this new land. There is a magical beanbag that keeps Emuoy safe from all the new dangers of his journey. In places where you would think Emuoy would die, somehow he scrapes through. Emuoy meets all kinds of wild and fascinating characters on his journey. One is a crazy man that lives in the desert and eats bugs. Another is a brilliant teacher that teaches Emuoy things just when he needs to learn them. Then there are all the crooks and murderers that proliferate the magical land. The magic and the wonder of this story seem to scream out to be told. People that read this will be left with a sense of awe about their own e
