    <![CDATA[The lord of Laughter, the Monarch of Mirth&#8211;if only the bumbling 17-year-old Sebastian Darke could be a successful jester like his father. The problem is Sebastian&#8217;s not funny. But after his father&#8217;s death, with no choice but to beg in the streets, the half-human, half-elf teen sets off with Max, his father&#8217;s slightly cynical Buffalope, to offer his services as a jester to King Septimus of Keladon. On the way they meet Captain Cornelius Drummel, small in stature, but the fiercest of fighters. The three rescue the fair princess Kerin, who&#8217;s being held captive by brigands, and happily escort her home. If only Sebastian knew the kidnapping was engineered by the evil King Septimus!<br/><br/><br/><em>From the Hardcover edition.</em>]]>
