Morfudd's Revenge is a darkly comic novel set in the hedonistic world of the 1930s art scene. It's full of jealous murder, love-induced madness, and brilliant artworks.
Morfudd Pickles, a student at Saint Peter's Art College, is a sad and lonely little man. He's been put down and bullied his whole life, firstly by his horrible parents, then later by three other students. Morfudd is balding, with bad teeth and terrible social skills, but his three persecutors are the college stars, the beautiful people who will surely go on to make a big splash in the art world.
But there is a light in Morfudd's world - the beautiful Morgana Petit-Fleur. He says she's his beacon of perfection in this dark and cruel world, but she says he's a creepy little man - so his love is unrequited. She hangs out with the three boys who bully Morfudd, and he blames them for her rejection, thinking they have poisoned her sweet mind.
In the final days of college, at the graduation ball, something happens between Morfudd, Morgana, and the boys, something so amazingly despicable that Morfudd's mind snaps, and he finds himself a different person. He now sees a very special furry friend from his childhood, who has returned from the dead to tell him what to do.
A jelly-spined victim no more! He must sharpen his hunting knife and go on a murderous quest for vengeance! Only then will his dream come true - the beautiful Morgana will declare her true and undying love.
Morfudd's Revenge is a story filled with hidden secrets, twisted psychology, and the blackest of humour...
