Why read it?
1 author picked Thraxas Under Siege as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I picked up this book when I was much younger. Until this point all the fantasy I read had been serious and gritty. This book showed me that fantasy could be amusing too, but still have high stakes. It follows the ongoing story of Thraxas, a down-on-his-luck and disreputable private investigator with some magical skill whose city is now besieged by orcs.

A fun read with some quirky characters…
From Andrew's list on fantasy and sci-fi to make you laugh.
