Jack oâ Hearts is the top card player in the parish, and is feeling pretty sure of himself. When a he is challenged to a card game with stakes higher than high by a mysterious green man, well, Jack canât resist. Sure, heâs never lost a tournament yet, has he?
Jack is as saucy as saucy can be, and heâs twice as lucky as thatâbut the game is trickier than it looks. Luckily, Jack finds heâs got an ace up his sleeve: the menacing green manâs beautiful daughter Ann. Sheâs got as much magic as her father (or so that enchantment crowd says), and she likes the look of Jack. A hilarious re-imagining of a traditional Newfoundland folktale, Jack and the Green Man is jam-packed with magic, romance, transformations, impossible tasks, unforgettable characters, a love ballad or two, and the ever-present threat of Jackâs head ending up on a spear.
