The Dragon Squisher: A Humorous Fantasy Adventure Featuring a Very Unqualified Hero (Book One of The Nigel Chronicles)

"Before I can begin my tale, you need to know about the king's panties."

Thus begins the epic-and deeply unfortunate-adventure of Nigel: latrine digger, professional screw-up, and possibly the most unqualified hero in all of Esteria.

At fourteen, Nigel is desperate to escape military school before he's dragged into a war he has absolutely no business fighting. Unfortunately, his escape attempts go spectacularly wrong-hurling him into a chaotic journey filled with magic, danger, terrible decisions, and the occasional near-apocalypse.

Along the way, Nigel finds himself tangled up with Lance (the infuriatingly perfect soldier), Eldrack (a gork with secrets of her own), and forces far bigger-and stranger-than he ever imagined. As kingdoms collide and ancient powers awaken, Nigel begins to suspect he may not just be unlucky...

he might actually be dangerous.

Some heroes rise to the occasion.

Nigel trips over it.

The Dragon Squisher is a hilariously chaotic fantasy adventure packed with absurd humor, disastrous heroics, misfit friendships, and a gleefully twisted take on classic fantasy tropes. Perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, this coming-of-age fantasy follows a boy who keeps making everything worse-and might accidentally save the world anyway.
