    About this ebook

    A humorous Post-Modern fantasy short story that pokes fun at the common tropes of this genre. Journey with Professor Carter Linwood as he thinks about rescuing Princesss Miralee from the horrible looking Gurs - lizard creatures who live in the sewer. With Jed Jarlton at his side, Professor Carter Linwood will battle the vile Ords - savage creatures with a penchant for nastiness and no desire to bathe. Will this short story be the beginning of Professor Linwood's nefarious battle against Evil? You decide!

    You'll never use the toilet in the same way!
