On his deathbed, a village elder tells of a prophecy that will come true soon. A deep snow will set into the world, followed by blades that will scour the land and rip up all the trees and houses. For Wignut, the main village hero, this is just another silly story. So he's not very happy when he has to travel with his trusted aid, Barnabus, to the Caves of Nosterak and collect a sticky substance that will glue down the buildings in their village. Unknown to them, they actually live in a moustache. A Close Shave with Destiny is a comedy fantasy adventure akin to Lord of the Rings, but with more snot and facial hair!From the creator of World Cup Dreams and Super Lizard comes a new comedy that pokes fun at many of the usual fantasy tropes.

Realisation of dreams and desires can be cut short by fear to succeed especially when optimism and the expectations are highly anticipated. At this level, it becomes difficult to compromise success in any shape, form or size. The desire of every man is to be successful and not fail at any of the challenges life throws at him; hoping for positive results as he carries on until he becomes what he desires in life. However, have you ever wondered why so many fail in their task and thus underachieve? Can you quantify how much of an effort is required to measure up or to attain success? The story of Jonah tells of his calling, how he relinquished his task and purpose in life to run a needless cause despite being told what he needed to do. His personal preference overshadowed his assignment and his punishment was instigated by his reluctant heart to complete this task unenthusiastically. This book is used to mirror our daily life struggles in resemblance to a genuine state of the heart of a man called Jonah during his troubled times. Jonahs initial refusal did not prohibit him from Gods service; rather God tracked him down and used this unwilling prophet to change the heart of the people that lived in a great city called Nineveh. Also, the connection between the old prophecies and the present day Nineveh located in northern Iraq of today is explicitly evaluated in relation to todays happenings.
