Book Description
Tunnels, trolls and disembodied souls. Bill Strike, fire mage, has a problem. The magical staff he used to destroy the malicious Faerie King has been stolen by the king’s servant and, to make matters worse, the dark soul of the king is now trapped within the staff. With his companion Brianna and a goblin called Rasha, he sets off to the imperial capital to consult the library. With explosive consequences. Can he prevent the king’s soul being united with a new body? Can his half-brother Chortley successfully send his goblin prisoners back to the Darkworld without falling victim to the labyrinth of the great wizard Minus? Can Gramma stop a load of revolting goblins? And who put that elf on the shelf? Trolls and Tribulations is the second book in the Faerie King series of humorous fantasy novels. If you’re a fan of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld and like fast paced fantasy, engaging characters, steampunk robots and more footnotes than a chiropodist, you’ll love this latest instalment in Kevin Partner’s comic fantasy series. Buy Trolls and Tribulations and embark on this latest fantasy adventure today! Kevin Partner does it again in this second book in this series. Funny with a touch of the ridiculous for poor Bill Strike., Rita Reminds me of Pratchett, and Adams, and a little bit of John P Logsdon with his Ononokin series, Bonnie Magic, mystery and plenty of mathering. Well written plenty of characters and a good dose of humour. Similar to Disc world.

Book Description
A fey king. An evil horde. A new darkness. And a man with exploding hands. "Fans of George Takei and Terry Pratchett will love this book and join me waiting impatiently for the next one. Go ahead, read it!" "Couldn't turn a page without a chuckle, a chortle or a good old fashioned guffaw!" "Funny, reminiscent of Robert Asprin, Douglas Adams, the best of Robert Heinlein" "This is an adventure story with bits of madness, magic, a budding bit of romance, and an air force wing of fighting chickens." Where two worlds meet, the jealous eyes of a Faerie King peer from the darkness as he gathers a slave army of subjugation Set against him and his dark horde is: Bill Strike, a naive, girl-shy youth with exploding hands, the girl he’s shy of, three witches, and a pioneer of chicken-powered aviation. Oh, and a sadistic young noble with a grudge against the universe. Myths & Magic is volume 1 of a humorous fantasy trilogy that features compelling characters, fantastical storylines, plot twists and a magical multiverse. And the occasional laugh.

Pages : 308
Book Description
Not many halflings dream of magic. But Epik isn't like the rest. Adventure. Excitement. He craves those things. He would rather learn magic, not follow a wizard on some fool's adventure.... Or so he thinks. The problem: magic is outlawed. After setting out for the city, what Epik finds in Dune All-En isn't at all what he'd hoped. No magic. And few wizards. Luck, or something more sinister, is on the halfling's side. He meets Gabby, a wizard who is kind enough to rent him a room, or rather, a closet, at his now defunct magical supply store. And as a group of mountain trolls threatens the city, Epik sees the opportunity to do something, well, epic. If only the halfling inside him would stop peeking out. Featuring halflings, dwarves, elves, and a ranger or two, Hero in a Halfling is perfect for fans of both Discworld and Middle-earth. Join Epik as he goes from halfling to hero, who just also happens to (still) be a halfling.

Conversations with People Who Hate Me
Author: Dylan Marron
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 198212928X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
From the award-winning host of the critically acclaimed podcast Conversations with People Who Hate Me comes a “fresh, deeply honest, wildly creative, and right on time” (Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author) exploration of difficult conversations and how to navigate them. Dylan Marron’s work has racked up millions of views and worldwide support. From his celebrated Every Single Word video series highlighting the lack of diversity in Hollywood to his web series Sitting in Bathrooms with Trans People, Marron has explored some of today’s biggest social issues. Yet, according to some strangers on the internet, Marron is a “moron,” a “beta male,” and a “talentless hack.” Rather than running from this vitriol, Marron began a social experiment in which he invited his detractors to chat with him on the phone—and these conversations revealed surprising and fascinating insights. Now, Marron retraces his journey through a project that connects adversarial strangers in a time of unprecedented division. After years of production and dozens of phone calls, he shares what he’s learned about having difficult conversations and how having them can help close the ever-growing distance between us. Charmingly candid and refreshingly hopeful, Conversations with People Who Hate Me demonstrates “that talking personally and listening fully—without trying to score points or to convince someone to change their mind—goes a long way toward breaking down barriers. The book will delight his fans and draw new listeners to the podcast” (Kirkus Reviews).
