LK1
From The Encyclopaedia Expurgatia
LK1 is a novel describing, among other things, the Lost Kingdom--an extradimensional and paratransitional location outside of the common multiverse.
It also chronicles the adventures of Cameron James Drake, Crescent Anne Madison, Minestrone Campbell, Montgomery Logan Stark, Doc the Snore, the deinosaurs of the planet of Mars in Universe 97D, the evil Queen Messerschmitt Viperspat, the even more evil princess Tranniscag Viperspat, the not especially evil at all prince Heinrich von Viperspat, Drasbury the Dragon, a cantankerous Thalassomedon haningtoni, the Casual Observer, a 1984 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinetta coupe, the Lost City of Atlantis, the cats, coffee, cheese, the Gremlin and the Dark Grimalkin, and a big huge massive corpulent shamoolian plethora of generally useless information. Also, it's got a two hundredish-word introduction by the lead singer of SlipKnot which may very well be the best part of the whole book.
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
