(4) 4-6 Best friends Mason and Cowel are shocked when they're charged with saving their village from monsters. Armed with a guide to Standard Hero Behavior, the unlikely duo sets out to recruit "real" heroes, managing, predictably, to save the village themselves en route. This first novel drags, but it's packed with creative characters, bizarre adventures, and zinging jokes.
