Ribeye is a legendary Bullbarian warrior living in an Iron Age world of long ago. Together, he and his kid brother, eight year old Cubesteak, depart the rolling green pastures of Bullbaria on a quest to find their long lost father Flanksteak. Their journey is perilous: they must battle hoof-to-hoof against cutthroat pirates, and learn to survive amid a Bullbarian's worst nightmare... civilization! When the evil wizard Suvlaki develops a major beef against them, the steaks are raised to dangerous heights, as the brothers must struggle not to fall victim to the dark spell of the fabled Jewel of Baloni!

The story and illustrations were hysterical! This book has now taken it's place as the most sought after bedtime story in our house. Our one son even insists on taking it to Grandma's for sleepovers (she's a fan now, too!)
To the author and illustrator...back to the BullPen with you both for a sequel!!

What a fun, feel-good, family book!! Mr. mcLaughlin has done a masterful job spinning a yarn that appeals to all ages. My son giggled as much as his dad and I at the antics and adventures of these wonderful characters. This book is a must have for any collection.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Ribeye the Bullbarian and the Jewel of Baloni (Paperback)

Wow! It was really rad and had a lot of good heroes in it. I loved it when Ribeye beat the wizard Soovlaki
I would reccomned this book to anyone who likes Harry Potter becasue it had magic in it to and it alos had bad guys but Ribeye beat them all with his little borther Cubestake. I even did a book report on it and got a good grade.
