Brought together for the first time in one bumper volume, here are Michael Gerbers hilarious parodies, Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody, Barry Trotter and the Unnecessary Sequel and Barry Trotter and the Dead Horse. Relive the whole ghastly tale of Barry Trotter, Lon Measley and Ermine Cringer. Amusingly, the story starts when Barry is 22 and shiftless, goes on to tell what happened when he was 39 and pathetic and then, because we couldn't think what do next but needed to crank out one more book, zips back, via a supremely unlikely plot device, to when he was 9 and just plain vile.Laugh! at Lord Valumart's bizarrely inept attempts to kill Barry. Wonder! just how Bumblemore got to be headmaster. Heave! at Lons toilet habits. Sigh! when you realise that it isn't a Harry Potter book after all. What? You've only just worked that out? And now youve bought this book? And you cant find the receipt? Oh dear, oh dear.

Barry Trotter is pretty disreputable and unpleasant. Imagine what he was like as a teenager. Here's the beginning of the whole sorry tale. Did Barry and Ermine do it? (Their homwork, that is.) How exactly did Lon end up with a hole in his head that whistles when the wind blows? Was Lord Valumart always that crass? And where did that ridiculous German accent come from? As funny and twisted as the first two books, BARRY TROTTER AND THE DEAD HORSE is also as affectionate towards JK Rowling's originals. This has lead to the books gaining a devoted following amongst fans of Harry Potter as well as being a welcome antidote for the over-egging (eeuwww) of the boy wizard. A process that we're not a part of at all. Oh no. Not even a tiny bit.

Barry Trotter And The Shameless Parody is an incisive and hilarious parody of the Harry Potter phenomenon. There are slyly affectionate digs at the books themselves but Gerber's main scorn is directed at the monster that the Harry Potter franchise has become. The book has a creative energy all its own introducing characters and a hilarious take on magic that even J.K Rowling might appreciate.

Hart Fox is in line for admission to Stutts, the most prestigious college in the Universe. But when the local millionaire's son elbows him out, Hart has no choice but to accept a deal: admission in exchange for taking the dunce's classes on top of his own. Of course, the deal backfires, but with the help of his vampire girlfriend, his wheelchair-bound genius roommate, and the staff of the college humor magazine, Hart just may come out on top.

Like a chronic skin condition, the world's most irritating wizard is back! Barry Trotter, now 38 (going on 11), has returned to the Hogwash School for Wizardry and Witchcrap. He and his wife, Ermine Cringer, are there to deposit their Muddle-loving son Nigel, 11 (going on 38), and about as magical as a plastic fork. Just as Barry and Ermine are set to leave, Headmister Dorco Malfeasance dies. Who cares - nobody much like Dorco anyway. Barry and Ermine are installed as interim heads of the School, and kick off a carnival of arrested development. But then, in the sort of plot twist that could only happen in a cheap novel designed to leech off a massive pop culture phenomenon, Barry develops youthenasia. He begins a steady march backwards in age and reliving the horrors of adolescence (including the Acne of Fire) may not be the end of it . . .
