Fast-paced, irreverent satire for Pratchett and Python fans. This ebook contains volumes 1 and 2 of The Chickpea Chronicles.

The Quest For The Holy Hummus - Volume 1

A journey for organic hummus results in unwarranted prejudice. The story of how George The-Decent Dragon became the greenest vegan in human society.

Despite being a regressive and unhelpful stereotype, it was nevertheless accurate to say that dragons were aggressive, bloodthirsty brutes. Not George, though. He's a self-professed 'decent' individual with a penchant for organic cookery, gardening, and making his own clothes. Oh, and he's a vegan, you know!
George's adventure begins when he decides he wants some hummus. However, as Dragonville definitely isn't the sort of place to find chickpea-based snacks, he sets off towards People Town to visit his favourite place in the whole world, the glorious Farmer Fred's feel-good, local, family, fair-trade, organic wholefoods store.
Follow George as he traverses Dragonville, desperately tolerating the idiots who wander into his path – before continuing on towards lovely, civilised People Town where unfortunately our heroic, massive, fire-breathing reptile encounters further unwarranted prejudice.
Will George get his delicious dip? Will he make any new friends? Will years of suppressing his true instincts make him have a terrifying and very-public nervous breakdown? Find out!

The Vegan Charade - Volume 2
War has been declared! The Ogreton Ogres plan on liberating Dragonville. Only George The-Decent Dragon can stop them – and his amateur dramatics group are here to help.

Now established in People Town, George is enjoying his new, civilised life. However, back in Dragonville trouble is brewing.
A war has been declared! Sworn enemies, the Ogreton Ogres have heard that a huge, poncho-wearing dragon refuses to eat people and also, that it won't let the other dragons eat them either. There can be only one explanation for this nature-defying dietary-finickiness: They have all gone soft!
Tasked with averting the conflict, George is dragged back from his idyllic existence. His only hope is to convince the ogres that they've got it wrong; that dragons are still mental monsters who will happily gulp down anything put before them without making a huge fuss. But actual people-eating isn't an option, because he's a vegan, you know!
Fortunately, People Town's largest resident isn't alone in his laborious, meat-free charade. The members of the Amateurish Amateur Dramatics Society / Production Company are waiting for their curtain call.
Will George's thespian abilities be up to the challenge? Will he be able to find his motivation? Will all terrifying losses of self-control be strictly as per the script? Tickets available now!
