Lazar and Jingles with Bunson in

From mirrors in strange places to stars ceasing to shine, friendships rekindle by fire''s light. Elsewhere, in a forgotten realm separated by a dream, a monster builds a tribute to himself. Prisoners are held, gifts are exchanged, and a kiss is a demon''s touch.
The clock ticks toward twelve, but will it be morning or evening next? That question is not so easy to answer. Not for Bunson Bear nor for his new traveling companion. Elsewhere, flames of fire burn hot as a strangely aloof Lazar Lion presents his blue rose to a captive audience. Not to be outdone by a former friend and comrade in arms, Jingles presents his new toy to a friend not so near but very dear, so long as Jingles''s new boss doesn''t find out.
Strange new friends join stranger old ones as Lazar, Jingles, and Bunson battle the pandemic that is the Shadow Tree. Joined in the fight against Captain M.T. and his monstrous marvels are Sylvester Alexander Koala, Abner Pennster, Sgt. Jack Thompson, Sgt. Joseph Smith, Sgt. Martin Stephens, and a host of Waterford''s best (and worst) citizens.
Their ultimate goal? Dethrone Captain M.T. as would-be world ruler and send him and the curse of the Shadow Trees to hell once and for all.
