Product Description

Welcome back to the Hyperbolic Age, a time that time forgot, when men were drunk, women were unhappy, and goat was the other white meat. Into this melodramatic yet somehow lost epoch strides a mighty figure, a king cursed to never again remember his homeland who wanders the thousand-and-one kingdoms in search of what he's lost. His name is Vengar, and he's a barbarian.

Shudder with anxiety as our hulking hero drinks foul concoctions unfit for human consumption. Thrill as he kidnaps dark ruffians and wages war against barbarians even bigger than himself, and shake your head in dismay as he does irreparable damage to his liver.

In this episode...

On a quest to recover his stolen property, Vengar arrives in the northern lands of Sunderia, a harsh and unforgiving region that sees little tourism. There, he enlists the aid of a mysterious rogue and then charges off to confront the monstrous warlord who holds what he once held dear.

Can Vengar overcome the warlord and his Glum Horde? Will his mysterious new ally stab him in the back? And what the heck is with the goat milk, anyway?

Clocking in at roughly 35 pages, The Salvaged Sword of Vengar is a whole lot of adventure in a petite package.

Vengar the Barbarian! The mighty strange adventures of a strangely mighty man! Brought to you by Oktopod Digital Press, a new idea in independent publishing. Drop by and visit us at: oktopods.wordpress.com

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of fun in a quick read, January 30, 2012

This review is from: The Salvaged Sword of Vengar (Vengar the Barbarian) (Kindle Edition)
Like the first Vengar story, this was a quick, fun read that brightened up a boring afternoon. It doesn't take itself seriously and plays around with the cliches of the genre while still delivering an enjoyable swords and sorcery story. I look forward to further installments in Vengar's adventures!

Conan the Barbarian as a comedy? Well, it works. The witty dialog will take keep you smirking as you follow this tale of Vengar the Barbarian (the second with hopefully many more to come), in search of his oversized sword, leading up to an ending that wasn't quite what I expected. Certainly I will never think about goat's milk in the same way again.

Thanks to Ted Boone for the correction, I really need to go back and read the first Vengar story!

His other interests include linguistics, cooking, video games and digital publishing advocacy. He's the proud recipient of several literary awards he made up himself, and he currently resides in Rocklin, CA, with a family who somehow puts up with his shenanigans. He hopes to someday own his own tropical dictatorship.
