The Ring of the Lord — Terry Ravenscroft

A novel of the Netherworld so fantastical that even aficianados of fantasy novels will be hard pressed to believe it. Our story begins 7000 years ago in the Middle-earth shire of Dreg. From there, in a last ditch effort to prevent certain death at the hands of the Dark Lord for all who dwell in Dreg, Draybweevil, eldest son of Chief Tunnbledemere, accompanied by seven of the chief's loyal subjects, Arselow, N'Safety, Teasmade, Rolldeoll, Ovoz, Bargains, and Dildo Boggins, pass through a portal to Nottingham, England in the year 2016. And far, far beyond.
