Description

Fast-paced satire for fans of Terry Pratchett's Discworld.

THE CHICKPEA CHRONICLES – VOLUME 1

Despite being a regressive and unhelpful stereotype, it was nevertheless accurate to say that dragons were aggressive, bloodthirsty brutes. Not George, though. He’s a self-professed ‘decent’ individual with a penchant for organic cookery, gardening, and making his own clothes. Oh, and he's a vegan, you know!

George's adventure begins when he decides he wants some hummus. However, as Dragonville definitely isn't the sort of place to find chickpea-based snacks, he sets off towards People Town to visit his favourite place in the whole world, the glorious Farmer Fred’s feel-good, local, family, fair-trade, organic wholefoods store.

Follow George as he traverses Dragonville, desperately tolerating the idiots who wander into his path – before continuing on towards lovely, civilised People Town where unfortunately our heroic, massive, fire-breathing reptile encounters further unwarranted prejudice.

Will George get his delicious dip? Will he make any new friends? Will years of suppressing his true instincts make him have a terrifying and very-public nervous breakdown? Find out!

George the Dragon, actually the Vegan Dragon was in a quandary. He was out of hummus to spread on his freshly baked bread. So he need to waddle his way to Farmer Fred's organic food store to by more. But that involves traveling the length of Dragonville on his way to People Town where Farmer Fred's is located. But will Farmer Fred's be there when George arrives as Julian Pinkerton Smith is facing off with the repo man. A fun quest that reveals George as someone willing to be only put up with so much guff before he roars. A comedic quest that lands George more than delectable foodstuffs!
