The Available Adventurers!

Adventure begins! … Aaaaannd it is not off to a great start. Imagine a world of unbridled fantasy – a world where magic, dragons, elves, and even happy endings actually exist. That world is called Nedroj and it has, for eons, been the stage for an unceasing war between the forces of Good and Evil. So far, so cliché. Yet (unlike certain TV series producers), even Good and Evil know when "enough is enough"! And so, the final battle – the one to decide all battles – begins! Against Evil's greatest and vilest champions, Good marshals … Hold on. How would Marketing spin this in such a way as to not give Legal a migraine? Perhaps: "Good was not too picky and used the adventurers that were, well, 'available' at the time"? Certainly sounds better than "Good is probably getting a little something on the side to take a dive on round one"! But maybe – just maybe – there is more to this motley adventuring party than meets the eyes (and because they are on the road adventuring so much, probably the nostrils as well). Our story begins, like all such tales, with a group of knights and a quest for their kingdom. Yet no sooner is the quest issued that things start going sideways quicker than a crab escaping a seafood buffet. In fact, this entire first book is mainly about the adventurers gathering their party (preferably while postponing the whole dying business for as long as possible). Will they succeed in their quest? Almost certainly not. Will they at least survive in their endeavour? Again, probably best to hedge that bet. But will their story at least prove entertaining (from a third-person perspective)? Ah, now that, Dear Reader, can be arranged… TLDR: The first book in a series of books. Fantasy genre mixing action, adventure and, especially, comedy. Expect a colourful cast of unlikely adventurers, an impish egomaniac narrator and, for some reason, obscure references to memes. You have been warned!
