About Beast Be Gone - A Fantasy Fiction Comedy Book

Creatures in your basement? Undead spooking your castle? Infestation of goblins? Beast Be Gone will clear out those pesky pests and save your health and business - (no dragons)Adventurers rampage across the land, stealing everything from bread rolls to ancient heirlooms, slaughtering countless innocent monsters in their hunt for glory. Eric, the owner of Beast Be Gone pest control, knows that most creatures can be removed with a bit of repellent, however the adventurers want to do things the flashy way; blowing up half of the dungeon with fireballs in the process. With no work left, Eric is broke and desperate. That is until a young woman equipped with mechanical gadgets becomes his apprentice. Together they uncover the mystery of a diabolical plot that answers the timeless questions about adventuring... Why are there so many Chosen Ones? Are goblins inherently evil or are they just misunderstood? Why do all the shopkeepers say they have the best swords in the land? What are the socio-economic implications of all these sword merchants? Somebody wants a world full of adventurers, but why...? Terry Pratchett meets Ghostbusters in an RPG world.Beast Be Gone is a new fantasy comedy novel, which explores the stories of the underdogs of fantasy tales, sometimes known as NPC's. They're normal folk just wanting to go to the shops without getting stabbed by a sneaky guy in a cape who got bored of hunting goblins. A must-read for anyone who loves Dungeons & Dragons, RPG's and online games (although you'll never be able to play them again without feeling bad for the men who have to clear up the mess you left behind in dungeons). Suitable for adults, YA and teens. Available in hardcover (hardback), kindle, ebook and paperback. First published August 2021.
