Parson Gotti was magically summoned from Columbus, Ohio to be the "perfect warlord" for Overlord Stanley and the side of Gobwin Knob. But the obsessive strategy gamer barely managed to survive his first battle--and his first week in the gamelike universe of Erfworld--before calling it quits. Empowered by Parson's improbable victory, the armies of Gobwin Knob now square off against their arch enemy Jetstone. With the Arkentool-wielding "Mistress" Wanda Firebaugh and Jetstone's own former Prince Ansom to lead them, Stanley's forces prepare to strike the capital city of Spacerock and end King Slately's side for good. But behind the scenes, other powers are pulling strings. As Gobwin Knob steps into the fight, an expertly laid magical ambush is sprung. Ansom is captured, Wanda is helplessly trapped in enemy airspace, and "Lord Hamster" Parson Gotti must step back into the role of Chief Warlord. ...And whoever made that happen is going to be very, very sorry.
