Bash Down the Door and Slice Open the Badguy: Humorous Tales of Swords & Sorcery
"A real treat for fans of sword & sorcery."
-John DeChancie, author of the Castle Perilous series
"Bash Down the Door and Slice Open the Badguy takes all the old familiar sword & sorcery standards and even a few cliches, turns them on their ear, rips out their funny bones and beats them over the head with it. Lots of fun."
-Patrick Thomas, author of the Murphy's Lore series and the "Dear Cthulhu" column in Cthulhu Sex Magazine
"It's refreshing to turn to broadswords for belly-laughs, and sorcery for snickers, both of which this anthology delivers. With work by established authors Lawrence C. Connolly, K. D. Wentworth and Jim C. Hines-along with good entries by soon-to-be-rising stars like A. G. Devitt and Susan Sielinski-this is a solid collection of sly and silly sword-and-sorcery tales."
-Timons Esaias, author of The Influence of Pigeons on Architecture and winner of the Asimov's Readers Award

All kidding aside, the story is fun and entertaining. It follows Abigail Cummerbund and her to assistants, Stone McGinty and Kitty Shue, as they seek out an overdue book. Not just any book, though, but a book of supernatural significance, as many of the Miskatonic Municipal County Library books are.

Now this comic has a new and different concept librarians chasing down overdue books about the supernatural. Abigail with her two assistants Stone and Kitty all three are tough looking. Abigail is definitely not someone you want to be on the bad side of.

This is a very entertaining story that could easily fit in between the worlds of “Army of Darkness” and “Shaun of the Dead”.

I have to admit that I'd never expect there to be an exciting story that could be written around Librarians chasing down past-due books. In this case, I was vastly incorrect.
