Summary

King Arthur, the conceited battle chieftain of legend, and his trusty man-at-arms Biggs, who resents his king and friend, encounter a dwarf through a mistake. Together they meet an effeminate elf, a Chinese children's entertainer, a monk of the short order, and a fully armored war horse, then accept a mission to rescue two princesses from a D'ark Lord, defeat him, and slay a dragon. This would be quite straight forward if the pompous king and his band of chums took things seriously, which they don't!

Be prepared for fun and silliness in this fantasy/science fiction novel, the first in the Arth Series.
