A Kentucky Colonel in King Arthur’s Court
And
The Swamp Maiden of Venus
By
Kenneth Tucker
A botched alchemical experiment tosses Hal Morgan—the scion of a wealthy Louisville family and perhaps a relative of Twain’s Hank Morgan—into a whacky dimension where characters of Arthurian legend indeed exist. Hal soon finds himself upon a dangerous quest to save Arthur’s court form the plotting of a mysterious black knight. Joined by a sprightly female warrior and a whimsical thief, Hal must confront a mangy werewolf, talking salmon, an exceedingly amorous Morgan Le Faye, belligerent giants, man-eating witches, a libidinous troll princess, walking eyes, a kelpie, and a dangerous magical forest before he can unmask and defeat Arthur’s adversary. At time humorous, at times satirical, A Kentucky Colonel in King Arthur’s Court is a fast-paced adventure in the style of that grand old fantasy magazine Unknown World. Also included is The Swamp Maiden of Venus, a bitter-sweet tale of youthful romance and a boy’s addiction to fantasy.
