À propos de la deuxième de couverture

Literature is more than adequately served with great, well-rounded, complex heroes and villains. But most people aren't like that. So this book is a chronicle of that silent, strange majority who have been overlooked by the corpus of the Western canon. It's a collection of the weird, the pedestrian, the uninteresting and the unpublishable - a list of those younger and elder siblings of the great figures who stalk the literary dreamscape, who, until now, were ever destined to linger in their shadows.



Meet the likes of Euston Bear - currently living off Burger King wrapper sandwiches after ending up at the wrong station. Walter Wonka - a Kettering dentist with a phobia of dwarves. Gandalf the Greggs - beardy, pastry-covered street wizard. The Honourable Jeremy Dracula - younger brother of the Count. Vegetarian.



These sh*t literary siblings have long-deserved their place in the sun and now, at long last, they finally have.
