Treasyre Hunt - Tim Fox - Bog

Wow!For those of you who have been playing along ("Scavengyr Hunt" and "Wytch Hunt,") you know our boy Tal is, as the young people say, "All up in it now." If there's such a thing as a literary rollercoaster (suggested new word options being "Litercoaster" or "Rollerrarry") Tal is on one.This term's Hunts School 'winner take all" hunt is a Treasyre Hunt and any team that wants to rule the known universe for the next three hundred years has to go big. Which in the Folk Realms always means the possibility of death (or worse.)Here's a little foreshadowing for you: Notos has a really big secret, Nord has cranked his jackassery to stratospheric heights, Kati meets The Simurgh, Helblad, Kingbossdaddy of the Undead, may yet end up serving Tal as the main course at the next draugr feast, our hero has conversations with talking stone heads, Tal meets a (lesser) Roman god who runs an apothecary store, there are fun tymes in othertyme, watch out for the mean grimoires that torture their readers, a meute of werewolves get their disco groove on, and Tal's girlfriend seduces him into going to hell. Well, actually it's Five-Hells, and technically Tal sends himself. Regardless, it's a major relationship bummer.Some Folks win. Some Folks lose. Some Folks get their just desserts. Some Folks get other Folk's just desserts.Some other Folks-unless they snag bigger roles when Hollywood monetizes these insanely brilliant literary masterpieces-get no dessert at all.It's all terribly good fun and by the time you finish, I'm sure we'll all be in agreement-THAT IT WAS ABOUT TIME.
