Lord Talon's Revenge: A comedy of greed, war, hatred, betrayal, and other desirable things - Paperback

by Tom Simon (Author)

DON QUIXOTE tilts at THE PRINCESS BRIDE in a satirical romp through the fields of epic fantasy. All the man in the black mask wants is to pay back the king who stole his name, his face, and his birthright. Mercenary ogres, enterprising were-dragons, and termagant princesses are all just part of the game. But when a foolish knight-errant and his world-weary squire get in the way, revenge turns out to be a little more complicated than usual.

Author Biography

Like most writers, Tom Simon has had a wide range of peculiar jobs, from sysop of a dialup chat board (before the commercial Internet) to assistant in a Member of Parliament's constituency office. One of his MP's constituents was an ardent advocate for the population of elves who lived (so he said) in a patch of wild ground in the midst of the city. Mr. Simon regrets that he was never personally involved in dealing with elf issues. However, he has met the usual assortment of witches, wizards, and one creature who styled himself Archdruid of Canada. A Canadian by birth, Mr. Simon lives in Calgary, but part of his heart will always remain among the mountains of British Columbia.
