Nigel's back. And everyone wants to kill him.
Which is fair.
In a recent poll, the citizens of Amerigorn were asked who the most hated person of all time was. Lord Smoron-the dark wizard responsible for two thousand years of death and destruction-came in second.
The Crudge Whacker tells the continuing adventure of the boy who came in first.
Everyone hates Nigel.
The humans and gorks want their amulet back-and they're willing to kill him to get it. His friends have had enough of his heroics. And his mother has officially kicked him out of the house.
If only Nigel would destroy the cursed amulet.
But Nigel is convinced he can use it for good.
Unfortunately, his attempts at becoming a hero have a way of going catastrophically wrong-spiraling into a disaster that threatens all life in Esteria.
Nigel might be the only one who can save the world...
which is exactly the problem.
The Crudge Whacker is the hilariously chaotic sequel to The Dragon Squisher.
Perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, this humorous fantasy adventure delivers even more absurdity, heart, and spectacularly bad decisions.
The Crudge Whacker has all the hilarity and shenanigans of the first book, with even more heart. You'll laugh, sigh, cringe, and roll your eyes in equal measure-and you'll love every second of it. I'm already looking forward to more Nigel and the gang!
-A.E. Kincaid, author of The Demon, The Hero, and The City of Seven
Praise for The Dragon Squisher:
An uproariously funny LGTBQI+ positive riff on Lord of the Rings that's a delight for all ages!
-George Penney, author of OverLondon
