This is a parody of "The Lord of the Rings" by JRR Tolkien. It is very brief, comparatively, and not to be taken seriously. It is meant to be amusing even if a bit vulgar.

Book Details

First Sentence

"When Mr. Dildo Bugger of Bug End grudgingly announced his intention of throwing a free feed for all the boggies in his part of the Sty, the reaction in Boggietown was immediate-all through the messy little slum could be heard squeals of "Swell!" and "Hot puppies, grub!""
