"Kedrigern. No quester he: counterspell expert, lazy homebody, and cheerful coward, he's got no business chasing about in the muck after a monster. And a true monster; no less--a swamp thing who snacks on heroes and feasts on dragonslayers... and craves a wizardly dessert. But promised a fat purse of gold--and assisted by an enchanted huntsman, an overgrown bee (really an undergrown wizard caught in the cross fire between rival spellcasters), and a cowardly prince--the disgruntled Kedrigern quests away. So it's off to Moodymount--a nasty place afflicted with an altogether unpleasant creature. On the whole, the wizard would rather be home roasting his toes on the hearth. But a phantom princess and a loathly monster have other plans for Kedrigern..."--Pg. [4] of cover.
