INTRODUCING FANTASY'S
BIG NEW HERO . . .
In the enchanted city of Turai, the royal family is corrupt, the politicians can be bought, and the civic guards have better things to do than guarding. Thraxas may look unprepossessing and overweight, and more interested in pursuit of his next beer than pursuit of justice, but if you're in trouble in Turai, this portly private eye is probably your only hope.
Join Thraxas as he's hired by a Princess on a case which leads him from the sewers of Turai right up to the Imperial Palace. Never a man to turn his back on a client (or an extra meal), Thraxas, aided by Makri, an axe-wielding young barmaid with a touch of Orcish blood, fights his way through the dark and magical streets of Turai.
Two full-length hilarious novels in one volume introducing Britain's fantasy smash hit to America.
Praise from the British Press for the Exploits of Thraxas:
"Blindingly funny, deeply subversive . . . Martin Scott has invented a new genre: pulp fantasy noir."
—The Guardian
"A pulp fiction hero par excellence." —SFX
"Funny and engaging. I laughed aloud." —Starburst
"Wonderful plotting, and the jokes come thick and fast. . .. This is funny. Really funny." —Black Tears
