M.A Hides

(Real) Life's A Bu**er: A Tale of Sex, Dragons & Rock 'N' Roll M.A Hides

Real life's just too much effort... Dealing with a dragon or a powerful necromancer is easy, but girls, bullies and parents are a totally different challenge altogether. This bitter-sweet, but always humorous memoirtakes the reader on a revealing journey as the author attempts to escape from the world he thinks of as mundane, immersing himself in the world of fantasy role playing games and wargaming. This is a personal celebration of the quirky and geeky rather than an apology for being a fantasy-obsessed man-child. The reader may laugh, cry or just cringe at the antics recounted, but no matter how strange they may appear, they really happened. So, put out the cat, unplug the telephone and skip hand in hand with the author along the yellow brick road of youth, right into the red brick wall of adulthood.
