Cugel's Saga (previously titled Cugel - the Skybreak Spatterlight)
Cugel the Clever is still seeking revenge on the magician Iucounu, whom he blames for his exile and all his troubles. But revenge is hard to come by, and the adventures on the way are so very diverting.
Cynical and crudely charming Cugel again ventures back to Almery, after his spell misfires against nemesis Iucounu the Laughing Magician. He connives out of wage-slavery, in debt to the company refectory, as he dredges for a disassembled demiurge's scales in a slime pit. He and a co-worker sabotage each other scrubbing disease off huge worms that power ship Galante.
