World famous hero/memoirist Sir Colonel Walter S Houghington III hates parties. But tonight, for his best mate, the horrifically scarred Yxa-Tocenzin, he’ll make an exception. Yxa’s London-based oddity museum is set to premiere the lost treasure of an ancient, reviled demigod, and Walter has arrived for an early, solo preview. But when Yxa’s wife, Tempest, mysteriously falls ill with a walking coma, moments after touring the exhibit, Walter begrudgingly agrees to stay for Yxa’s sake.
As Tempest’s doctor develops the same haunting, trance-like symptoms, Walter and Yxa know trouble is afoot. Suddenly, the doctor’s trance turns to malice and the museum’s party becomes a war zone! The dust settles and our heroes find themselves surrounded by cursed souls who can only utter one simple word, “Worthy.”
But what is this terrible curse? Who are the Worthy? How did Yxa get his terrifying scars? Now, as long-suppressed memories bubble to the surface, Walter must fight against both personal and physical demons to save his friends -- and, yes the world too -- as an immortal evil reawakens and consumes all!
Also included, a further Houghington adventure; IN HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SEWERS! There's something terrible in Her Majesty's Secret Sewers! When eerie hauntings cause the Royal Family to flee their palace, world famous hero/memoirist Sir Colonel Walter S Houghington III is called in to oust the unknown terror. Teaming up with the beautiful, headstrong Regan, Walter descends deep into the labyrinthian tunnels of Her Majesty's Secret Sewers -- what awaits him is beyond imagining and will rock him to his very core…
THE CHRONICLES OF HOUGHINGTON follows world famous hero/memoirist Sir Colonel Walter S Houghington III as he traverses the Nine Skies in search of villains to fight and wrongs to right. From Ozone Pirates to ancient gods, from damsels to demons, Houghington is always ready for the next challenge. Along the way, he’ll meet new friends, face ever mounting odds, and record every moment to share with his vast, hungry readership. Be sure to look for his helpful Survival Secrets and other pro-tips along the way so that you, too, can one day become a world famous hero!
