From Ace!
A Fate Worse Than
Dragons In the Kingdom of Medulla, there
are
only two ways for a brave knight to marry a beautiful princess.
One is
to be born rich. The other is to rescue her from a fate worse
than
death.
Terry chose the second method. But he didn't count on Princess Gloria having her own ideas on the subject. And when her plans go awry, the two must team together to rescue not only themselves, but every girl in the kingdom from the talons of evil. And stale toast. "The most satisfying John Moore novel yet" (SF Reviews) |

On Sale Now! Damask: A kingdom that couldn't get ransacked if it tried. But that's exactly what its rulers have in mind. And when they need a puppet to put on the throne, Bad Prince Charlie seems perfect for the job. But Charlie has second thoughts when he's forced to imprison the beauteous Lady Catherine. Ransacking Damask, it turns out, is only a cover for the real plot. And it's up to Charlie to rescue Catherine from prison, the country from destruction, and his own neck from the noose! "Bad Prince Charlie maintains John Moore's track record for fun fantasy rib-ticklers." (SF Reviews) "Moore's breezy style and knack for skewering fantasy cliches come through once more." (sfrevu) "Even better than its predecessors...look for it and
enjoy!" (Analog)

The
Unhandsome Prince
"There's magic in a kiss," the young sorceress Emily tells Caroline. But the beautiful Caroline knows that already, for kissing an enchanted frog has earned her the right to marry a handsome Prince. There is one catch -- Prince Hal is far from good-looking. So both girls set off for the city of Melinower, where princes abound, hoping to trade Hal up for a handsomer model. But the pair soon learn that it's easier to find your prince than to marry him, and before long they're tangled in a plot involving a mysterious dwarf, a magic sword, a kidnapped bride, a Dark Tower -- and the unhandsome Hal has plans of his own for our two heroines. "The plotting here is solid, the pacing pitch-perfect, and the heroes even more warm and likable than they were in Heroics For Beginners." (T. M. Wagner, SF Reviews) |

Heroics
for Beginners
Not all men are born heroes. Some have to read the instruction manual. Sure, Lord Voltmeter is a formidable foe; He's a skilled fighter, a brilliant tactician, and an expert at vivisecting small furry animals. And now he has a Diabolical Plan. For me it was a stay-up-late-to-finish-it laugh-out-loud romp. It is a great choice for those who like their fantasy funny -- readers of Pratchett and Asprin. (Diana Herald, Genrefluent) |
