Four from Mangrove is a four-story collection, all involving different aspects of the city-nation of Mangrove. The audiobook is a classic fantasy, sword, sorcery tale. Once, there was a land like no other. It was a city-state, a nation.

Giants lived in Mangrove - powerful kings and generals who ruled all within their sight; and lands far beyond. And it gave birth to the least of us - powerless serfs and homeless orphans.
