They must save the world from destruction at the hands of a raging mega-demon by reassembling the Ring of Serpentium, the one item capable to stopping the demon's rampage across the known world.Death Wears a Big Hat picks up where Bodies left off and is nothing less than a full-throttle sleigh ride to the summit of Mount Excitement!

Here it is: the long-awaited author's cut of the cult-classic Bodies, the book once described as "the greatest fantasy novel ever named after a Sex Pistols song." Venture forth with Gilbert, the disgraced knight, and his ally-of-convenience, Shango the orc, as they drag their zombified cadavers across the Kingdom of Marchand in search of a cure... served with a heaping side dish of vengeance! They must endure each other, assorted misadventures, and their own stink before they can track down the Arch-Mage Fliss Raffington and put a stop to his diabolical machinations. It's the classic tale of Bodies that you've (probably) come to know and love! Once you pick up Bodies, you won't dare put it down; it's like a cocaine-fueled car chase through the crowded streets of downtown Kick Ass City!
