<p><strong>"Before I can begin my tale, you need to know about the king's panties."</strong></p><p></p><p>Thus begins the epic-and deeply unfortunate-adventure of Nigel: latrine digger, professional screw-up, and possibly the most unqualified hero in all of Esteria.</p><p></p><p>At fourteen, Nigel is desperate to escape military school before he's dragged into a war he has absolutely no business fighting. Unfortunately, his escape attempts go spectacularly wrong-hurling him into a chaotic journey filled with magic, danger, terrible decisions, and the occasional near-apocalypse.</p><p></p><p>Along the way, Nigel finds himself tangled up with Lance (the infuriatingly perfect soldier), Eldrack (a gork with secrets of her own), and forces far bigger-and stranger-than he ever imagined. As kingdoms collide and ancient powers awaken, Nigel begins to suspect he may not just be unlucky...</p><p>he might actually be dangerous.</p><p></p><p>Some heroes rise to the occasion.</p><p></p><p>Nigel trips over it.</p><p></p><p><em>The Dragon Squisher</em> is a hilariously chaotic fantasy adventure packed with absurd humor, disastrous heroics, misfit friendships, and a gleefully twisted take on classic fantasy tropes. Perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, this coming-of-age fantasy follows a boy who keeps making everything worse-and might accidentally save the world anyway.</p><p></p>"An uproariously funny LGBTQI+ positive riff on <em>Lord of the Rings</em> that's a delight for all ages!" - George Penney<p></p><p>This third edition includes bonus material from the sequel, <em>The Crudge Whacker: A Humorous Fantasy Adventure Where the Worst Hero Gets Even Worse (Book Two of The Nigel Chronicles)</em>.</p>
