The Disastrous Chronicles of Porto Mirtillo – Volume 1: Bread, Potions, and Proverbs A comical illustrated fantasy adventure filled with magic, laughter, and unforgettable disasters! Welcome to Porto Mirtillo, a town where potions speak for themselves, bread comes to life, and bureaucracy is a truly magical (and destructive) force. When Tobio Scapezzolo, a confused-looking but sincerely hearted handyman apprentice, is tasked with delivering a "harmless" potion, he sets off a chain of events that transforms the town market into an explosion of animated creatures, dancing flours, and rebellious breads. Along with an unlikely group—a backwards sorceress, an orc poet, a chaotic elf, a talking cat, and a paper-obsessed goblin bureaucrat—Tobio faces absurd trials, out-of-control festivals, and mad magic. But perhaps, precisely in disaster, lies the secret of heroism. For those who love: Terry Pratchett- or Douglas Adams-style stories Illustrated fantasy novels, full of humor and twists Worlds where magic is unpredictable, the characters hilarious, and every page is a surprise Ideal for children aged 11 and up, playful adults, fans of humorous fantasy, and readers looking for a lively read, full of illustrations, hilarious dialogue, and surreal situations. This is the first volume in a series: each book is a new adventure (or catastrophe) set in the bizarre and enchanting world of Porto Mirtillo.
