Description
In 16th-century Venice, three cunning plotters have devised a sinister plan to eliminate their most persistent foe. Antonio, Montressor Brabantio, and Iago have lured the hapless Fool Pocket to a dark dungeon, promising an evening of revelry with a rare Amontillado sherry and the senator's beautiful daughter, Portia. However, their invitation is a ruse, and the wine is drugged. Desperate for revenge, they seek to rid themselves once and for all of the man who has consistently thwarted their ambitions. But Fool Pocket is no ordinary victim. He possesses more than a few tricks up his sleeve, including some impressive hand gestures. As greed, revenge, deception, lust, and a giant sea monster converge, this hilarious tale unfolds with Christopher Moore's signature bawdy humor. A wickedly entertaining tale of power, wealth, and the unlikeliest of heroes, The Serpent of Venice is a sidesplitting adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
