LIVE THE LEGEND!
Gloria "Glory" McArdle plays Vixen the Slayer in a straight-to-syndication TV show where even the fans say the villain is the better actress. The wizards of Erchanen have been searching all the worlds to find a hero, and Vixen the Slayer is the last name on their list.
The Warmother, imprisoned a thousand years before by Ginnas the Warkiller, has broken free of her ancient chains. If a hero can't be found somewhere in all the universes to fight for them, the people of Erchanen are toast. But is it Glory they're looking for... or Vixen
It all seemed to be a perfectly straightforward misunderstanding when Belegir was explaining it in Glory's dressing room. The reality—if you could call it that—isn't just fighting for her life. Faced with a challenge like that, what can a girl do but pick up her magic sword and her stuffed elephant and give her trademark battle cry:
"Hi-yi-yi-yi! Come, Camrado! Evil wakes!"

what it says on the cover of the book -- The Incredible Adventures of Vixen the Slayer, set in the kind of story Esther Friesner like to publish. In other words, a wacky fun romp, sobriety not encouraged.

Product ReviewSometimes light fluff fantasy is all I'm looking for, and this one employed some delightful humor as well. Enjoyable premise.

Product ReviewLight fluff fantasy. Lots of sf/fantasy references from John Carter via Red Sonja to Xena. Pokes fun at tv and Hollywood productions. Sadly I found the ending abrupt and feltt that some threads that seemed of great importance to the heroine were left unexplained and unsolved which detracted from the overall experience.
