The Abundant Abductions of Sploonth

It would be pretty preposterous to think that Mookus's witch of a wifemate would bamboozle him for a petty prophecy.

Then Mookus emerges from a spell to find that she has given birth to a cyclopean baby and absconded with him. The father: Mookus's best quest mate and only cyclops in town, Gudder. To make matters worse, this babe is destined to become king of Generica. But the duped duo won't let the wicked witch get away with her dastardly deeds. Together with their mates from Questers Union Hall 24, they set off to find closure and retrieve their future king.

The quest soon becomes an immediate fight for the kingdom when the group teams up with Princess Diorbell to thwart Gardrayl Thumbtoe and the Confederation Of Various Fellowships Embodied For Evil, who have taken over Slimestone Castle. Should Gardrayl remain on the throne, the ancient Days of Almost Constant Irksomeness will once more darken Generica. Yet more than one nefarious plot is in the works, and not all forms of thwarting the scandalous scoundrels will lead to a happy ending for Mookus and his quest mates. From fishing Mookus's brother out of a slippery situation to meeting the all-powerful GOATCOAT, Mookus and mates must overcome overwhelming odds to save their child, their kingdom, and themselves.
