Fazgood and the Obstreperous Moosecrab Caper. The Mad Earl Chronicles, #1

Follow the escapades of The Mad Earl Fazgood in this rollicking tale based on the should-be-true adventures of a delightfully bizarre nobleman run rampant. All seems straight-forward enough when Fazgood and his compatriots sail in search of his much beloved but ever-elusive moosecrab stew, despite everyone, everywhere wanting him dead for no good reason at all. Sailing from port to port doesn't seem to evade his executioners so Fazgood goes to the capital of the Kingdom, despite being an exile, hoping for at least one bowl of moosecrab stew before he must surely face his doom.
Instead of moosecrab, however, Fazgood and his outrageous companions find corruption, deception, and an ancient talisman that could easily dissolve the very Kingdom he hates to love. Fazgood finds himself conniving the highest ranks of society into helping him solve the problem of his imminent demise or, for that matter, the Kingdom's. And he does what any good hero would do: he crafts a plan so cunning, so secret, even he cannot fathom it.
Join the Mad Earl and his compatriots as they traverse a Kingdom filled with peaceful, god-ruled citizenry ranging from bashful carnivorous plants to sorcerous gas bubbles. Will he save the Kingdom that set him on his felonious life or will he let the Kingdom be digested?And will he ever get his god-poxied moosecrab? Praise for Fazgood and the Obstreperous Moosecrab Caper:"I have been waiting years for this book to come out.
Tim W. Burke's brilliant FAZGOOD AND THE OBSTREPEROUS MOOSECRAB CAPER redefines delight and is, in my not so humble opinion, his best work ever, an endless buffet of one brilliant bit after another. I am in awe." -- Lawrence M. Schoen, author of Barsk: The Elephant's Graveyard
