Hugh Pendexter

The Fumbling Kingmaker Hugh Pendexter

Ambloq, (a Clerical klutz,) with Eldon, (a Starborn Warrior,) Senta, (a Ranger,) Krimhild (a Karate expert,) and Njal (a mischievous Illusionist,) and Glitchby (a slightly insane Wizard) help Prince Vortigern to claim his throne, unseat the Emperor Cestus, and rescue their lascivious boss from the clutches of the Priestesses of the Pythoness. They face sea battles, miscast spells, enslavement in the silver mines, and bureaucratic chicanery. The path of true love confronts Starborn bigotry, secretarial espionage, Prince David's wild oats, and the erotic machinations of the Pythoness. Ambloq's precocious three-year-old son enlists as a Paladin and finds a killer sword, Biophontes which, once drawn, must kill.
