{"product_id":"2940016758541","title":"The Wizard's Day Off","description":"Welcome to the magical land of Cargite.  In Cargite, all the living beings are happy, all the time.  This is due to the brilliance and presence of the remarkable stone Ahem.  Both the stone and the Land of Cargite are tended by a rather modest Wizard, Wendell by name, who is quite attentive about his responsibilities.  One day a bad creature named Metic, acting through his idiot operative, Twab, arranged for Wendell to \"go on vacation.\"  Unfortunately for the land of Cargite, the stone Ahem that controls all moods in Cargite began to dim, with rather negative results for the land and its inhabitants.  Ahem is losing her color. Wendell is not available.  What are the folks of this storied land to do?\u003cbr\u003eA quest!  In all good fantasies, there is a quest; even if one is not needed, there is a quest.  If there is one needed, then there is typically a large group of volunteers willing to sacrifice their lives, virginity and reputations, not to mention free time, to form a quest and march off into the sunrise of adventure and return at the sunset of intrigue.\u003cbr\u003eThe fantasy spoof combines the elements of the better fantasy novels with the elements of well constructed spoofs and provides a smile, a chuckle or possibly a lesson or two.  Good really should always win out over evil, but if more is said, the story will be compromised...and no one wants that!","brand":"DUO Publications \u0026 Documentation R\u0026D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47081879011568,"sku":"2940016758541","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940016758541_p0.jpg?v=1763660284","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940016758541","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
