Utterly Unfeasible Tales: A Humorous Fantasy - E-book - ePub

A double-bill of riotous comic fantasy. The first two tales of Landos - a bustling, developing (slowly) city of chancers, lunatics, thieves and utter stupidity... and that's just the coppers! Book One - SVELT:Are you ready to join an unlikely hero on an unexpected quest?While in the city taking a break from work on the farm, Svelt 'inherits' a strange map from a dying wizard and, with the vague clues as his only guide, begins the seemingly impossible task of searching for the mysterious artefact.
Although he is oblivious to the 'help' from a mischievous, ancient time-traveller, some believe it should not be found. Finding himself was the original objective, but Svelt soon learns that being the centre of attention in Landos is not conducive to growing old... especially for a dwarf troll. Book Two - EVENTFUL TIMES:An astronomical anomaly causes widespread panic!With a strong possibility of impending doom for humanity, Death looms grimly over the entire planet - he doesn't know how to loom any other way.
The non-tangible believers turn to (insert here). The citizens of Landos turn to the authorities. The authorities turn to the scientists. The scientists turn to the wizards. The wizards turn to brandy... and eventually, when the threat becomes impossible to ignore (even by wizard thresholds), someone has the good sense to ask for practical help. But is perennial tinkerer Albert Sonny ready for such a challenge?
