We’re launching the latest novel from Nigel Edwards at FantasyCon in September. Here’s a little more about it…
Life in the quaint English hampton of Badger’s Waddle is never quite the same as elsewhere in the country… or any other country for that matter.
The first sign of impending chaos was when giant rabbits breached the defenses all along the indeterminate length of the vegetable garden of Little Twee cottage.
To patch up the defenses took the combined efforts of the resident gastrognome and a Crippin & Hare Indifference Engine operated by Tavarius Truckle, the man with the highest ever score in an apathitude test. But when tourists start exploding at the village fete, bank deposits build up a critical pressure, and the church’s resident saint finds a loophole in his contract of supra-ecclesiastical employment, the whole hampton must unite to restore some semblance of normality (except for Tavarius Truckle, who’s far too apathetic to care). Only Goode Nurture, the nice old lady in the tall, pointy black hat, has been preparing for this moment, shaving her gibbons in readiness for the looming crisis.
A short novel — 55,000

September! That’s years away. 😦
Not when the artwork isn’t ready and I want to use a printer in the US! 🙂
Briefly I had visions of you flying to the US, borrowing a printer and printing it off…. I’m having a bad day. 🙂
Sounds like the beginning of a great story 🙂
