TENERIFE TALL TALES,
WITH A TWIST IN THE TAIL

Tony Thorne, MBE, tells us about his book, Tenerife Tall Tales, With a Twist in the Tail:"

"This book is a collection of unlikely, speculative yarns written on my portable Neo word processor during idle moments, either on the island (of Tenerife) or when I'm thinking about being there, which is often when I'm not!"

Tenerife is a Spanish island, the largest and highest in the archipelago of the Canary Islands.

It's a beautiful and exotic spot, just the place to find, encounter or create what Thorne calls "Tenerife Tall Tales, with a Twist in the Tale."

For more information on Tony, Tenerife, and his works, you're cordially invited to visit his website here.
