    About this ebook

    Join cult writer Rhys Hughes on a series of inventive adventures among a cast of peculiar characters, including the completely unfeasible Hogwash & Bum Note, somewhere under the rainbow way down low...

    Here you will find stories about incompetent explorers in strange places; knights, goddesses and viscounts that don't exist (but who are stuck in trees anyway); castles that give birth to baby fortresses; anti-matter monsters that meet and greet their twins; robots in lingerie; and a scientist who believes that all the energy in the universe is draining away through a hole in spacetime and who has a cunning plan to plug the leak!
