Madcap adventure promises to save the junior warlord and his mighty troll friend from the skeletal, chilling grip of boredom ever clutching at their souls. On the edge of autumn, Krög abandons the comfort of the Great Hall searching for his next triumph... too often meeting bumbling defeat.Whether dodging ogres bent on barbecued barbarian for lunch, or battling a tower full of really angry curtains, or just trying to figure out what in the nine hells is going on inside the head of the spritely young woman contending for his affections, the young ruler is never wanting for an interesting afternoon.Before falls the shadow of winter across the land, cometh the waning days of summer... and a whole heap of trouble.
