A fantasy adventure in which Ben Holiday has bought Landover, a genuine magical kingdom, complete with fairy folk and wizardry, just as the advertisement had said, but there was much else about Landover that was not mentioned in the advertisement, as Ben is about to discover. From the author of THE BLACK UNICORN and WITCHES' BREW.

This book may have been written over thirty years ago, but it holds up well. Ben Holiday's crazy adventure after purchasing the throne of a fantasy kingdom, Landover, shows that some things never change, no matter what world you're in.

Fairly original tale. Good premise. A bit slow at times, but enjoyable. Kept thinking that it would make a great TV show. Definitely ways to improve, but good core.
I enjoyed reading this story. It has crisp characters, a well-stitched plot, and fantasy. A quick read; I can only hope the rest of the series follows in the same fashion.
this is the second time reading this book and I still love it if not more than earlier reading. I did the audio book and it was done so great you forgot that it was just one person doing all the characters.
