During a night at the June Alley Inn, a dispute over an unpaid drink gives rise to a competition: whoever can weave the best story for June herself will have their tab cleared entirely. This competition inspired the Inn's visitors to weave a variety of fantastic stories, told from the perspectives of an assortment of authors and illustrators.
