About this ebook

When Captain Albert “Bertie” McGregor of the British Army deployed to India, he never expected, green as he was, to find himself swiftly taken up in the great adventures of a lifetime—least of all under the command of one enigmatic colonel called Archibald Korn. Whispers around the men labeled the Colonel a crackpot, unfit for the rigors of war. That is, until Bertie found himself owing the Colonel a lifelong debt and with it, his (exasperated) loyalty.
The Imperial Adventures of A.R. Korn is recorded in the journals of Captain McGregor as he follows the eccentric colonel on a whimsical journey of mystery. Always a step behind, Bertie is whisked all across the British Isles as he and the Colonel are entrusted with a mission of utmost secrecy from the Queen herself! Never mind that the Colonel never lets Bertie actually read the missive from Her Majesty. Nor does he brief him on the mission at hand. Nor, even, does he inform the frustrated soldier where they’ll lay their head the coming night. Regardless, someone—or something—has been raiding the grain silos in Uig, and if they aren’t careful, Bertie and the Colonel may just well find out who.
The debut novel from author Seth Acerni, A.R. Korn is a joyful tribute to the adventure stories of the book’s own period. With its colorful characters and quick-paced capers, The Imperial Adventures of A.R. Korn is a fanciful ode to loyalty that is sure to have you singing a round of “God Save the Queen” and it might even make you believe that not all fairy tales are make-believe, after all.
