Description
The Keyholder's ApprenticeA Comic Fantasy Novel by Derek M CartwrightTeleportation. Telepathy. Sabre rattling duels in corsets. Just another day on planet Rock.After a night of one-too-many pints, three friends stumble into a portal and vanish to another world. Johnny, the last to leap, arrives just 24 hours later-only to discover he's a full year behind. Welcome to Rock: a fantastical, dysfunctional dimension where music isn't just life-it's a lethal, soul-stealing addiction.Armed with sarcasm, a stolen jetpack, and questionable telepathic powers, Johnny sets off on a rescue mission across a world gone mad. Along the way, he tangles with flying vampire banshees, witches with a flair for Jane Austen cosplay, an undead Doctor Death, drag queens with royal secrets, and the Rock Gods themselves-musclebound megastars whose killer concerts are literally that.As the world teeters on the edge of apocalyptic absurdity, Johnny must rally a ragtag rebellion of misfits, orphans, and glitter-slinging rebels for the ultimate showdown: a Battle of the Bands where the fate of an entire planet will be decided by pop songs, pride parades, and one very cross king.A riotous mix of Terry Pratchett-style satire, Douglas Adams-level absurdity, and classic rock nostalgia, The Keyholder's Apprentice is a laugh-out-loud comic fantasy about friendship, freedom, and fighting fascism with glitter.Perfect for fans of:Comic fantasy & humorous sci-fiParodies & satire with heartGenre-bending adventures full of chaotic funSpoofs of rock culture, royalty, and revolution
Grab your air guitar and hold on tight. The World of Rock awaits-and it's totally off its head.
