Opis

Humorous fantasy from Littlebeggarland. In the Land of Littlebeggar, who would have thought that being a little different could have such a downside? NO ONE. But Jed Khakifern was born a little differently....a little brown gnome thrust into a world of white gnomes. Desperate to escape the prejudice he suffers, Jed runs away from his birthplace looking for a solution to his predicament. On the road, Jed meets Edwin Longarm, a grey grizzled gnome, who has more to him than meets the eye (but not a lot). Jed is tracked by Jethro his next tree neighbour, and the dyslexic goblin Cedrick, who attempt to bring the silly Littlebeggar home, before he can come to any harm. A thankless task. When Jed discovers an ancient scroll that promises he could be turned to white, if he delivers it back to its owner - the despicable Illbred the Feeble - he believes he may have found an answer to his troubles. Little does Jed know that the author of this scroll is the world's most evil entity, seeking to escape his imprisonment by enticing Jed into his presence. A further complication to Jed's life is the obsessive and irrational Prince Olbert, who relentlessly pursues the brown gnome, looking to uncover Jed's secret. Or as the prince would put it, the secret of the 'Brown Source'. 'Littlebeggars - The Book' is the humorous, sometimes sinister tale, of Jed Khakifern's efforts to escape the damaging effects of 'Just Being Different'. WILL GUDDE OVERCOME EVILLE? (And learn to spell properly)?
