Today I’m thrilled to welcome M. J. Northwood to the blog for a special feature on Finding the Funny in Fantasy, something I believe we all need more of in our lives. Last year, I read and reviewed his epic fantasy novel, Birth of the Dawnhawk, as well as interviewed him along with his co-author for Self-Published Fantasy Month 2020, so when the opportunity to feature his comedic fantasy series, Game of Gnomes, came along, I just couldn’t say no. Those of you that know me also know I can’t stay away from two specific things when it comes to books I love: the darkest of the dark fantasy…and Ridiculous(ly)™️ funny and satiric moments. From what I’ve heard from others that have read The Necrognomicon, it seems to fit nicely in the latter, and I am in desperate need of this book. With characters named Gassy, Borty, and Turdlet…I mean, come on.
