Eigentlich hätte es ein gemütliches Wochenende am Kamin eines alten Freundes werden sollen. Doch was ist schon gemütlich für einen Mann, der seine freie Zeit an der Seite eines Meisterdetektivs verbringt?

Gab es ihn wirklich? Den sagenumwobenen "schwarzen Abt"? Und noch viel wichtiger: Seinen unermesslich wertvollen Goldschatz? Die Einwohner der Gemeinde Fratton scheinen dies jedenfalls zu glauben. Der Meisterdetektiv verspürt keine große Lust, sich der Suche anzuschließen. Bis man ihn herausfordert und er einfach nicht ablehnen kann.

Comedy and fantasy collide in this Dungeons & Dragons genre parody. This audiobook is a spin-off of the infamous Journal of an Outlaw series by Mick McArt. Although set in the same world as the Outlaw, Nimbus "Stormcloud" Slumberdim has an entirely different approach to adventuring in the Unremembered Realms. Being a good guy isn't as easy as it seems, thanks to his traveling party of Garrot the Mage, Kellepto the elven thief, Aiden the cleric, and the feisty dwarven monk named Footpalm the Elflinger.

Book 3 continues the hilarious adventures of the Outlaw with 100 journal entries in the Unremembered Realms. The book series has been described as a blend of Lord of the Rings and Monty Python. Book 3 spends more time delving into the character and all his associates. If you thought you heard it all in Books 1 and 2, you haven't heard anything yet!
