Description
Vanquish has returned to Illmoor after an age in exile, and none can stand against him. To make matters worse, the continent's greatest hero has become a vessel for the dark god's spirit and a relentless army of possessed zombies has been formed out of the mindless people of Dullitch. With nothing but a pitiful band of crusaders fighting for freedom, the cities of Illmoor are falling one by one. Hope is fading fast ...And yet there is one - ancient and powerful enough to challenge the dark god. Can Illmoor unite to face its greatest enemy yet?
Reviews / Votes
'A considerable new voice with a great future.' -- Wordsmith magazine 'David Lee Stone is a wonderfully mad new talent to watch. He has a truly original comic voice and you won't forget his hysterically hopeless (rather than heroic) characters in a hurry!' -- Wendy Cooling 'Easy to read and consistently amusing in the wry Terry Pratchett/Douglas Adams style.' -- The School Librarian 'many comical elements and a touch of Mervyn Peake' -- The Children's Bookseller '[The Yowler Foul-up] is a zippy, highly efficient read with a natural, unforced wit and a matter-of-fact heartlessness that never seems mean-spirited.' -- SFX Magazine '... the natural heir to Terry Pratchett.' -- SFRevu 'It is gripping adventure fantasy, Narnia for the Tarantino generation, and they will love it.' -- www.hackwriters.comMore details
