Bash Down the Door and Slice Open the Bad Guy: Humorous Tales of Swords and Sorcery

Evil emperors. Powerful curses. Crazed were-gibbons? Some heroes need to polish their derring-do, while some villains require the know-how of advice columnists to be truly evil. Some magicians should never be left alone with their spells, and some gods aren't really all they're cracked up to be. It's a veritable chorus line of worthless warriors, simpleton sorcerers, and hapless henchmen. The life of an adventurer isn't all piles of treasure and damsels in distress, but there are sights to see, quests to complete, and jokes around every corner. So grab your giant axe, vorpal sword, or mystical grimoire-if you are of a mind-and prepare to meet your destiny with a smile on your face. Includes stories by Lawrence C. Connolly, Murray J. D. Leeder, Jim C. Hines, and K. D. Wentworth.Horner, W.
