Produktbeschreibung
Will Karl find his true home before he's killed by a crazed Man-Hawk? Karl's had a rotten week. He lost another job, a tyrant Man-Hawk invaded the only place he ever called home, and to make things worse, a greedy parrot just revealed that Karl isn't who he thinks he is. Clueless and hopeless, Karl has to find a portal to his real home before he's captured. Luckily he has the help of an Oaf, obsessed with revenge but incapable of killing, and Questions, the last of her kind who can only talk in questions. And so Karl's adventure begins. He's forced to explore a magical world that terrifies him, make friends and enemies and put his hand in dragon dung. It's an adventure he doesn't want to be on, but one which will change his life... forever. International Emmy nominated writer, Mark Boutros, brings you a warm, humorous and sometimes dark fantasy about friendship, featuring magic, monsters, morons and more. PRAISE FOR HEROES OF HASTOVIA "...I've not read a book that fuses the moronic characters we meet in everyday life with imaginative fantasy personas so successfully. Clever and funny." "The story is stuffed full of interesting and creative ideas, much more than a typical fantasy story. For example a likeable young lady called Questions, who can't make statements, but can only ask questions. She's from the Inquisos tribe, who struggle to have a normal life due to the difficulties of communicating. I particularly liked the idea of "Tortured Souls". If someone strong is tortured, rather than dying they escape by shrinking to become a small creature, a head with tiny legs. They don't remember much, but if anyone says their name to them then they get restored to their normal self. That's a good way of writing - take a common idiom and twist it to have a fantastical meaning."
