The Boy Who Didn't Want to Save the World by Dominic Barker

Blart is not an average boy. He lives on a pig farm with his grandfather and doesn't care about being heroic or famous or legendary, but he does know that if you want to catch a pig you have to sneak up behind it and take it by surprise. So when a great wizard visits and explains that humankind depends on Blart joining his quest, Blart says no - until the wizard threatens his pigs. Reluctantly, Blart embarks on a very epic quest stuffed with brilliant characters: a feisty princess who likes dragons, a warrior who's a big softie at heart, a disaffected dwarf, and evil Zorab, trapped in a mountain, waiting for his minions to dig him out.
'[a] ridiculously enjoyable anti-fairytale a witty and engaging treatI read it in one sitting with a big smile on my face' Becky Stradwick (Borders UK), The Bookseller
Dominic Barker has worked as a stand-up comic and an English teacher. He lives in the Lake District.
