Ronan’s Revenge

"...but the father of Midworldian Genetics is generally accepted to be Martel the Holy, a monk from Ilex, who postulated his Theory of Genetic Inheritance in Year 1027. In fact, hampered as he was by a sheltered and completely innocent upbringing, he postulated three different theories. Martel's First Theory stated that an individual would inherit fifty percent of their genetic make-up from their mother, and fifty percent from the gooseberry bush under which they had been found. Martel's Second Theory stated that this latter fifty percent was in fact inherited from the stork which had brought them. It was only after an extremely close encounter with a nun from the Holy Sisterhood of Carnal Enlightenment that he postulated his third theory, and this time he got it right. However, he also discovered that sex was an awful lot more fun than doing a load of crappy experiments with fruit flies, and abandoned Genetics for a life devoted to the pleasures of the flesh. He died, white-haired, stooped and almost blind, at the age of twenty-seven." - ENCYCLOPAEDIA MIDWORLDIA

Someone is out to get Ronan and his friends. The Guild of Assassins are after him - and so are some of the lethal animal killing-machines bioengineered in the magenetic laboritories of the Dwarves beneath the mountains of the north. This time our heroes find they are up against the real bad guys - the board of the Orcbane Sword Corporation, manufacturer of some of the most desired weaponry in Midworld.

In the third book of the Ronan trilogy, our heroes meet up with some more of Midworld's strange inhabitants, such as Marwood, the crap assassin, and Beneltin, a dwarf who wants to become a stand-up comedian. Will they all come out in one piece? Quite possibly not, actually...
