Publisher's Summary
“Glorious. A story that will be found and enjoyed and dreamed about for years to come.” (Neil Gaiman)
A stunning modern-day Dickensian fable and a celebration of friendship and bravery for freethinkers everywhere.
It all starts on the morning the letter D disappears from language. First, it vanishes from Dhikilo’s parents’ conversation at breakfast, then from the road signs outside and from her school dinners. Soon the local dentist and the neighbor’s dalmatian are missing, and even the Donkey Derby has been called off.
Though she doesn’t know why, Dhikilo is summoned to the home of her old history teacher Professor Dodderfield and his faithful Labrador, Nelly Robinson. And this is where our story begins.
Set between England and the wintry land of Liminus, a world enslaved by the monstrous Gamp and populated by fearsome, enchanting creatures, D (A Tale of Two Worlds) is told with simple beauty and warmth. Its celebration of moral courage and freethinking is a powerful reminder of our human capacity for strength, hope, and justice.

Intriguing children's literature
This is a cute story about a girl name Dhikalo who goes in search of the missing D's. This would be a great story for children around 10 and up. I don't know why the publisher is pushing this as an adult fiction story...it is not. The writing is easy to understand and the author goes into further explanation on concepts that maybe beyond the readers comprehension. The narrator did a great job with distinguishing the different characters. Her pace was slow at times but I did not feel it detracted from the story. There maybe concepts that are scary so full warning to parents to listen before engaging with their child. Highly recommend this story for families with children who like fantasy fiction or fans of Neil Gaiman and Lemony Snicket. I purchased this during the sale so I was willing to take a chance on an unfamiliar author. I just wish Audible or the publisher had correctly categorized this as children's literature.
