In such fantastic and dangerous times, may the best man not end up as a smoldering pile of ash.When Bayerd the Storyteller grudgingly rescues a princess named after seaweed, his rather mundane life changes drastically. And not for the better, as one might hope when one rescues a princess. Bayerd soon endures more trials than a cursed man, not the least of which is being saved by that very same princess from the dragon jaws of fiery death.In an attempt to prove his worth, Bayerd vows to protect the future queen from her plotting kin and a parade of alarming suitors. His lowly beginnings may not see him fit to kiss the highborn princess's oddly webbed toes, or polish the blood-stained boots of Sir Gore Wolfe of Howling Stone, but royal blood isn't everything. A dozen hell cats can't be wrong. They certainly have no complaint about the quality of Bayerd's blood, and they have sampled it - liberally.Together with his tall dark and brooding friend Orson, Bayerd does his manly best to fill the role of champion. It quickly proves to be a perilous role for him. Trouble sticks so close to Bayerd, it could easily be mistaken for his shadow. Or his good and true friend Orson.Recommended for teens and adults. 303 pages in printed book format."Quite a few times, I found myself laughing out loud. Funny, hilarious and witty.
