My dear friend Jonathan Rogers—author of the Wilderking Trilogy; The Charlatan's Boy; and my personal favorite, Flannery O'Connor biography The Terrible Speed of Mercy; along with a host of other books—put on his comedic bard hat and wrote "The Ballad of Lanric and Rube," which you may remember from a footnote in On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness.
Andrew Peterson[1]

The Ballad of Lanric and Rube is a ballad set in the world of Aerwiar from the book Wingfeather Tales. It was written by Jonathan Rogers and illustrated by Justin Gerard.

It follows Lanric Adoob and Rube Rumley-A'Catos in their attempts to see who is a better suitor for Illia.
