The Boy Who Set Sail on a Questionable Quest
Blart is on a deadly mission to save Princess Lois. Bravely risking his life for someone he doesn't even like hardly seems fair, but if he fails, the consequences will be far worse.
Setting sail on the Golden Pig, Blart must cross treacherous seas plagued by cut-throat pirates and violent storms. But, more terrifyingly, the Guild of Assassins is after him - and they don't want a cup of tea and a friendly chat. Blart must summon his courage and put on his luckiest socks as he embarks on a remarkable (and very funny) quest.

This series should be read in order.
This series is a parody of the fantasy-epic-quest book genre, such as Lord of the Rings. Its hero, is in fact a boy anti-hero, Blart, who rather than rising to the challenges of the quest with admirable courage and stoicism, tries to avoid risk and responsibility. Consequently, his quest is not only exciting and unpredictable, but most hilarious.
