Two brothers. One would trade his life for honor. The other would trade his mother for a pair of kings.
Bruce Legume, the legendary White Samurai, has crossed the world hoping to find his blood family. Stephen Legume, legendary card sharp and womanizer, has crossed the world hoping to evade his creditors. In a world made up of equal parts Errol Flynn, Monty Python, Marx Brothers, and Rocky and Bullwinkle, the Legume brothers must discover the Family Secret which could determine the fate of two kingdoms (and pay Stephen's bills).
But even if they can survive assassins, pirates, Vikings, amorous princesses, and lip gloss-obsessed Valkyries, can they survive each other?
From the author of The Stolen Future trilogy, a tale of lofty ideals, selfless heroism, and utter misadventure.
