Описание: A prequel to the bestselling classic The Mouse That Roared.

Set in the year 1450, the tiny Duchy of Grand Fenwick, ruled by the benevolent and noble Sir Roger and armed with its army of expert longbowmen, had existed peacefully without threat of invasion for decades. But when a rascally Irish Knight stumbles across its borders with news that the French were set to attack and that they had a new weapon of mass destruction called "the cannon," the Irishman and Sir Roger must find a way to drop their differences and fight together, a feat made even more difficult when Sir Roger's daughter, the Lady Matilda becomes unduly enamored in the Irish newcomer.

A hilarious trip to the moon." -Life Magazine "Fantastic, irreverent, cockeyed, funny and irresistible." -Library Journal "Humor, glee, shining irony... The whole world running amuck." -Christian Science Monitor "...a wonderfully funny sequel to The Mouse that Roared." -Amazon Reviewer "A nice follow-on to the evergreen favorite, The Mouse That Roared.

Описание: Gloriana XII-The Original Wolf of Wall Street. Grand Fenwick is at it again, this time upsetting the world's economy. The tiny country's secret weapon this time is its Grand Pinot chewing gum. When sales boom during an anti-smoking campaign, Grand Fenwick's investment is suddenly worth millions. In an attempt to rid Grand Fenwick of its crippling budget surplus, Duchess Gloriana XII decides the stock market is the perfect place to lose it all. Instead, she makes millions more and ends up wreaking havoc on the world economy. Never has "the money game" been more deliciously exposed than in this ingenious satire. "Wibberley is in great form. For imaginative story-telling and funny but meaningful satire this latter-day Swift is unbeatable." - Los Angeles Times "Irish-born Leonard Wibberley has frequently been acclaimed the greatest satirist since Voltaire...and well he might be." - Financial Analysts Journal "This is a typical Wibberley book, which means it's charming, witty, and direct in its satirical aim at the world we live in." - The Huntington Herald "What could have been just a cute fable is a masterpiece of satire as conglomerates conglomerate and the world wobbles on the tip of Wibberley's pen." - The St. Paul Pioneer Press "...a cautionary lesson, which Mr. Wibberley spells out with admirable clarity and wit." - The New York Times "This new book is an absolute delight." - Chicago Tribune "This book made me laugh and think at the same time. Who knew economics could be so funny?" - Goodreads Reviewer BOOKS IN THE GRAND FENWICK SERIES Books 2 through 5 are best read after The Mouse That Roared, but all of the books can be read and enjoyed at any point in the series.
