A serious fantasy series that doesn't take itself seriously.

Escape to a land of mad magicians, sword-swinging girls and poor peasant boys who only want to survive everyone's crazy antics and homicidal-suicidal adventures. Fred the serf is dragged kicking and screaming into the insanity as he's bought by the mad magician, the great Ned, and harangued by Ned's companion, Pat the scary-sword-wielding girl, which keeps him up all night so he doesn't get eaten by trees.

But what a wonderful world it is for the readers! Come and enjoy the sights and screams as poor Fred survives his new life!
