On a beautiful island full of magical creatures, one bunny is destined for an impossible quest. The rare Seither water that provides magic to everyone has been stolen. To make matters worse, the loyal Spartans who were guarding the Seither have gone missing. Someone must find the missing force and the Spartan guards.
But who? Following an ancient prophecy, the Viking King Hareld gives the mission to the most reluctant hero: His nephew, Hoplite, the humble farmer. Assisted by a group of colorful, hilarious, and sometimes-dangerous allies, Hoplite must complete a journey across the kingdom to find the missing magical water and the Spartans before it's too late.
To succeed, Hoplite must lose everything-including his lonely, peaceful life as a lettuce farmer, and become something he never thought possible: a powerful Spartan. With mesmerizing details and unforgettable characters, The Battle Bunnies and the Unlikely Spartan is a rewarding first volume in the transcendent community-created fantasy series.
Greg Larson was a starry-eyed fan when he hurtled headfirst into professional baseball. As the new clubhouse attendant for the Aberdeen IronBirds, a Minor League affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, Larson assumed he'd entered a familiar world. He thought wrong.
He quickly discovered the bizarre rituals of life in the Minors: fights between players, teammates quitting in the middle of the games, doomed relationships, and a negligent parent organization. Despite the team's struggles and his own lack of baseball talent, he yearned to join the exclusive fraternity of professional ballplayers.
Like most Minor Leaguers, the gravitational pull of baseball was still too strong for Larson-even if chasing his private dream might cost him his girlfriend, his future, and, ultimately, his love of the game. That is, until an unlikely shot at a championship gives Larson and the IronBirds one final swing at redemption.
An unflinching look at the harsh experience of professional sports, Clubbie will be a touchstone in baseball literature for years to come.
