The Sky Pirates of Gur, by Donald R. Broyles, is available for FREE at Smashwords.


Description
A FREE, humorous Post-Modern short story that pokes fun at the common fantasy tropes prevalent in the swords-and-sorcery genre.

What do lizard folk, Gurs, Ords, Professor Carter Linwood, and Princess Miralee have in common? Can you say 'sewers'?

Just read this one. It got a giggle out of me - but I've always been one for toilet humour. I didn't feel that it quite measured up to Mounting the Fat Lady though.

I didn't really get the "pokes fun at the common fantasy tropes prevalent in the swords-and-sorcery genre", but I liked the end of Professor Linwood's story and the narrator's ending was also fun.

I hope you write more stories.

Since the dishes are done and the laundry is doing its thing, I decided to take a chance on this book.
It was a nice quickie. If you need a laugh I highly recommend this book.
The price was right. Just be sitting down when you read it. Especially page 13.
Interesting use of words.

Your welcome. I thought at first you might have lost an L on page 13 but then I realized that you had used the correct word and that really gave me a giggle.
