Diana Gabaldon teams with her son, fantasy author Sam Sykes, for this audio fantasy short from Recorded Books. Sorry Outlander fans, no highlanders or time travelers in this story, but there is a pot-smoking zombie.

This is supremely funny satire on religion, sexism, and power. A decidedly unusual pairing, half-breed sorceress Armecia and her constantly stoned sidekick, Sir Leonard of Savhael, join forces with a cowardly church vassal and a giantess posing as a nun. Their quest? …. To catch and kill Zeigfried, a fiery - if not too fearsome - dragon.

Narrator could be better – Jill Tanner is not good with this material.
