A Horse for My Kingdom

Beschreibung

A rollicking adventure-quest romance with belly laughs. This first Tale from the Quaquaverse is a playful satire of the epic adventure fantasy genre. The pages are rife with off-the-wall humor, eye-winking pop culture references and steamy love scenes between the reluctant hero and the strong-willed heroine, all wrapped up in a friends-to-lovers storyline. A fractured fairytale for readers looking for adult adventure and humor. Funny and Steamy - Unwilling hero Oben finds himself on a daring mission to deliver a valuable gift horse to the king, but there's a catch - the quest is a plot hatched by the evil vizier Zag to usurp the throne. Setting out with his friends, Flap and Dongle, the sexy and savvy Nios insists on joining the troupe. Traveling the treacherous Forked Road through the dangerous forest, Nios fights at Oben's side while playfully trying to seduce him into marriage - the carnal kind. Join Oben's journey and encounter dangers both magical and mundane, laughing all the way. Beware of the wicked and foul-mouthed Thief Gnomes as they snatch Nios and the horse. Be on guard against the scheming evil vizier Zag and his sinister plan. And prepare to be amazed and amused when the ordinary horse magically receives the power of speech and reveals the way to save the kingdom. But just when the hero is at the mercy of the villain, can the oversexed wizard Fil come to the rescue with only a single, magic arrow? The caravan leaves at first light. Come along for the ride.

Since I was a kid, I've loved creating comic parodies of famous stories and movies, songs, TV shows and popular culture overall. My high school buddies and I competed to crack each other up with intricate satire, farce, and takeoffs of anything and everything. We created fake album covers, substituting fellow students for the artists, with sendups of the song titles, lyrics and liner notes. We wrote and recorded audio sketch comedies and created a fake religion complete with evangelical tract books and prayers. So, I get immense pleasure from writing the Tales from the Quaquaverse novels. Each is an entirely new world with all new characters rendered as comic parodies of famous novel genres - High Fantasy, Pirate Romance, Space Opera, Detective Noir - with many more in the works. The common thread will be fierce and sexy female leads, comedy high and low, and steamy, explicit romance. I call them fantasy sex comedies. My old school pals would love them. Hope you do too.
