This hilarious first novel, involves a stolen Gypsy baby, a tongue-tied accountant, a rich merchant, the merchant's ravishing daughter, magicians, spells, contracts in blood, pirates, transformations, Dim Avengers, döppelgangers, demons, duels, dicksocks, angels, carnal temptations, imprisonment and redemption. If this sounds like Shakespeare meets Monty Python, you are not too far off. Smith stages his comedic adventure in the early 19th century. He has created a historical comedy within a historical comedy that is as absurd and enjoyable as Monty Python's 'The Holy Grail' and Goldman's 'The Princess Bride'. The characters leap off the page in full costume.
