Bad Unicorn Trilogy series.
After saving humans and dragons from extinction, Max Spencer (Bad Unicorn; Fluff Dragon) is finding middle school to be a drag. But when he opens the Shadric Portal, he's instantly sorry. It's up to Max and friends to save the world (again) from unimaginable, absurd evil (e.g., monster men made from urinal cakes) in the conclusion to this farcical fantasy trilogy.

Bad Unicorn Trilogy series.
Max Spencer (Bad Unicorn) saved the human race from the mechanical unicorn Robo-Princess, but now he's been sent back in time to save dragons from extinction. This trilogy's second installment brings fresh characters--such as the fire kittens Moki and Loki--to an already charismatic cast. Once again, this lively parody moves along quickly, though Max's obstacles are too easily overcome.
