Notes:<\/strong> Described by my previous agent as "The Lord of the Rings <\/em>meets Inglorious Basterds<\/em>," The Goblin Corps<\/em> postulates a traditional epic fantasy of good vs. evil–and then follows the villains<\/em>, rather than the so-called heroes. Both darker in some ways, and more humorous in others, than my previously published works, The Goblin Corps<\/em> is a heavily sarcastic, brutally bloody, and exceedingly foulmouthed romp in the footsteps of evil’s minions.<\/p>\n

Morth\u00fbl, the dreaded Charnel King, has failed.<\/em><\/p>\n

Centuries of plotting from the heart of the Iron Keep, deep within the dark lands of Kirol Syrreth\u2014all for naught. Foiled at the last by the bumbling efforts of a laughable band of so-called heroes, brainless and over-muscled cretins without sense enough to recognize a hopeless cause when they take it on. Machinations developed over generations, schemes intended to deliver the world into the Dark Lord\u2019s hands, now devastated beyond salvation. But the so-called forces of Light have paid for their meddling with the life of Princess Amalia, the only child of the royal family of Shauntille.<\/em><\/p>\n

Now, as winter solidifies its icy grip on the passes of the Brimstone Mountains, disturbing news has reached the court of Morth\u00fbl. King Dororam, enraged by the murder of his only child\u2014and accompanied by that same group of delusional upstart \u201cheroes\u201d\u2014is assembling all the Allied Kingdoms, fielding an army unlike any seen before. The armies of Kirol Syrreth muster to meet the attack that is sure to come as soon as the snows have melted from the mountain paths, but their numbers are sorely depleted. Still, after uncounted centuries of survival, the Dark Lord isn\u2019t about to go down without a fight, particularly in battle against a <\/em>mortal! No, the Charnel King still has a few tricks up his putrid and tattered sleeves, and the only thing that can defeat him now\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

May just be the inhuman soldiers on whom he\u2019s pinned his last hopes.<\/em><\/p>\n

Welcome to the Goblin Corps. May the best man lose.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t remember the last time I so thoroughly enjoyed a thumping great-big-action fantasy novel. \u2026a big, loud, stadium concert of a book. It is unashamed. It is exciting, funny, dramatic, emotional, and utterly readable. It takes fantasy stereotypes, shoves them in your face, and dares you not to be entertained by them. It\u2019s just great fun to read and we all like fun, right?\u201d–James Barclay<\/strong>, author of The Chronicles of the Raven<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cMarmell has cleverly turned the bad guys into good guys without cleaning up a single drop of blood or amending anyone’s ill manners. The Goblin Corps serves up gore and guile with a side of amusement\u2014a great read for anyone who’s ever wondered what the world looks like from the sinister side!\u201d–Kevin Hearne<\/strong>, author of The Iron Druid Chronicles<\/em><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
