Henry H Neff, Fantasy Author:


Henry H Neff is the author of the five book Tapestry series and the standalone work, IMPYRIUM.  All are middle grade fantasies.  His latest book, THE WITCHSTONE, is a raucous fantasy romp featuring Lazlo, the laziest demo in Hell.  Hell's latest reorganization has given Lazlo a new supervisor, one determined to curtail poolside martini-drinking while reading porn and increase his division's Damnation Efficiency Rating.
