On the desk, amid a big silicon ogre’s arm (belonging to MirrorWorld treasure hunter Chanute), a dragon planter and plenty of other tchotchkes is Buzz Lightyear. There are books of weaponry, art, maps and many, many fairy tales. The closet doors are plastered with pictures, real and otherwise.
The app ($5.99, with one story, “One for the Other,” available as a free download from iTunes) uses the Ogre Tavern, filmed in a bar near downtown L.A., as an entry point, and from there, there’s about two hours of content.įunke writes in a one-room house behind her Beverly Hills home, near Franklin Canyon. Some stories provide background to the Reckless series, but all are meant to stand alone. The swirly, entranced look of a story titled “The Spell of a Fairy” matches the tale of what it’s like to fall in love with one. There are witches’ recipes that call for the leg of “a stout child” and the “sleep crust” from a dozing little one. Together they created the 16 distinctive stories (15 by Funke) for the app, which are told in words and other meida, including film, wood-cut-style drawings and fabric art.
