When the Hedral Watcher was in need of a warrior to defeat an all-powerful warlock, he knew that Thane - a lethal intergalactic mercenary - was just the man for the job. Unfortunately, he ended up with an amiable drunk, an inept wizard with an attitude problem, and a blonde Amazon in a tiny squirrel-skin bikini.
As the omniscient being of the planet, the Hedral Watcher had a funny feeling that it would all end up in tears unless Thane could reach the Warlock before his unwitting substitutes tried to fulfill their quest. But the band of fearless Warlock hunters had other ideas.
This is the story of their trials and tribulations, as they romp through a Tolkienesque landscape peopled by the Weird and Wonderful, such as witches seeking men to ride for the donkey-derby; psychotic foresters with a sinister interest in wood-work; and a band of trolls on the lookout for virgins to sacrifice to celebrate Thursdays.
From the auhor of "The Wedding Feast", this humorous fantasy novel was originally published in paperback by Matador, as "A Funny Olde Worlde".
