The Filthy Six by Daren Sturgess

Description: A novel which looks at the lighter side of the dark side, with a gently mickey-take of Conan, Dragonlance, Moorcock and Tolkien, with a bit of the Magnificent Seven thrown in for good measure.

When Ashandra, the evil, yet still cute and cuddly Necromancess put out adverts asking for hero’s little did she know what sort of a response she would get. Meet the Filthy Six, Eric, Wielder of the mighty runesword Windbringer. A deadly weapon in the right hands, capable of inspiring fear and flatulence in his enemies. Legless the Elven hero, able to sniff out alcohol from five hundred paces. Arrogant, the human ranger, winner of the best dressed hero award five years on the trot. Waistline and Macaroon, the brothers. One a powerful mage with a really good tan and stomach so big it needs to be carried in a wheelbarrow. The other a ferocious fighter who’s I.Q. is equal to that of his bicep, somewhere around the 56’ region. And finally Thongor, all round pervert and prodigious sheep worrier. By fair means or foul this lot are hired to nick the artefact that the side of light thinks it needs to win. At last even incompetence has a hero, or in this case several of them.
