His father, the beloved court jester of Austernerve, is kidnapped in a night raid. Tymmon escapes his father's fate but must find shelter in the dark, deep, and dangerous Sombrous Forest.   There, he meets another kind of outcast: Troff, a fearsome-looking dog-like gargoyle with an unexpectedly gorgeous singing voice. Together, the two form a great duo: Tymmon plays the flute while Troff sings. They take their act around the kingdom, until a chance encounter with a mysterious old man gives the two an opportunity to save Tymmon's father, and change Tymmon's life forever.   This ebook features an extended biography of Zilpha Keatley Snyder.
