I've heard they get better after this one, but it was still a great read. I was cracking up left and right and the idea of the monster was just brilliant. Shoot, the idea of the tourist coming to a ridiculous fantasy land was brilliant along with the flat world riding elephants riding a giant turtle. Okay, everything is brilliant. :) If the rest get better, then I'm in for a treat.

For Amazon's deal of the day, Sept. 17, 2013, this book (and the next 4 in the series) is on sale for $1.99 on Kindl

Hilarious, zany, so good. True fantasy, yet a tongue in cheek romp. Everyone should read it.
