Opis

Two Gnomes are just trying to get along in life when their worlds collide. Drimblerod runs a moderately reputable second-hand wand store that does pretty well at moving inventory. Grimbledung runs a disreputable second-hand wand wagon that he moves regularly to avoid the authorities. Everything changes when they combine their talents: City ordinances are broken. Neighbors are annoyed. The Constable becomes involved. Even the Magician's Guild sends over some Enforcers to deal with them. Things are looking up for the Gnomes From multi-headed travelers, to Half-Orcs just trying to obey their mates, everyone seems to come to the Second Hand Wand Shoppe to either buy or sell a wand. Along for the ride are a neurotic Jousting Dummy, an immortal (so far) Rat, a Trolless who runs the Tavern across the street, a Dwarf next door with (alleged) Mob ties, and the Head Mistress of the local School of Magic (with definite Mob ties). Bask in this 103K+ word *illustrated* adventure which starts an ongoing series. The books have slapstick violence, mild potty humor, occasional drinking, and often cantankerous Halflings. Well, the Halflings do invade in book 3 so some people die at that point but it is not graphic. Except for the security guard with the shiny red battle armor. He has a tough time of it...
