NOTE: This book is not intended for kids.
Bob is a Zombie who was just going about his business when a band of thieves stole his hand so that they could make a batch of Elfagra in the Upperworld.
While it's bad enough that they've stolen Bob's hand for such a purpose, it comes to Zombie's attention that if they use the wrong technique it could cause a cosmic rift that will spell the real death of Bob...not just the long, drawn out one that's part of being a Zombie.
Modacio is a thief who made an enormous mistake on her last job that resulted in the Thieves Guild putting a high price on her head. Working with her partner in crime, and Ogre (one of the nice kinds) named Kone, she sets in place a plan to deliver a gift to the head of the Thieves Guild in exchange for having the bounty taken off her head. Unfortunately, this means she has to swipe the hand of a defenseless Zombie. But better his hand than her life!
Bob turns to his only real friend, a Dwarf named Perkder, and asks for help in getting his hand back. The two slap on disguises and begin a journey to the Upperworld in an attempt to stop the thieves before it's too late.
Readers and reviewers have compared the Tales From the Land of Ononokin series to the works of authors such as Terry Pratchett, Robert Asprin, and John Moore. Fans of Discworld and Myth Adventures will find a new, fun, comedic fantasy world to play in. Wizards, magic, Dwarfs, Orcs, Ogres, Trolls, Gnomes, Halflings, Vampires, Zombies, Dragons, Gorgans, and more fill the vastness of Ononokin.

From the Author:
Ononokin is a magical world that is split into two distinct realities: The Upperworld and the Underworld.
The Upperworld is your standard medieval reality, containing wizards, kings, knights, dwarfs, elfs, halflings, etc. The Underworld has advanced technology and is full of orcs, ogres, trolls, vampires, werewolfs, gnomes, dark elfs, dark halflings, and so on.
The Underworlders know about the Upperworlders, but the opposite is not exactly true. Only the elite get to know the truth about those living in the Underworld. Everyone in the Upperworld just thinks that the Underworld and its inhabitants are merely things of legend.

The authors are talented writers with a strong sense for the whimsical. One of my favourite authors is Terry Pratchett, and these guys have done something I never thought possible.... they've brought the same level of enjoyment to a book that Terry Pratchett has always given me. High praise, indeed. -Mrs D. (Amazon Reviewer)
If you like Terry Prachet or Paul Magyrs then try John P. Logsdon. Amusing plot, fantasy world and lots of clever wit running just under the surface of this book. -Mrs. S. J. Cleife (Amazon Reviewer)
