Scrungle Bungus and the Magic Fungus is the debut novel of renowned satirist M.K.R. Lambert — a fantasy epic about roadworks, Brexit, and Donald Trump (yes, really).
In the mystical realm of Plom, Scrungle Bungus lives in a tree, commuting via the levitating huba mushroom that whisks him in and out like a fungal Uber. Life is idyllic until, one fateful morning, Scrungle discovers his supply of magic mushrooms has run dry. Desperate, he embarks on a quest to restock.
Along the way, he meets the Knights of Colour — a chivalric order more invested in personal branding than rescuing a missing princess — who point him toward Plombree City’s Sorcerers’ Collective Society (SCS), currently running a sale.
Joined by Peetles, a loyal companion he rescues from a pack of wolves with questionable mental capacity, Scrungle stumbles into a world of trolls inexplicably guarding bridges, roadworks that never end, political intrigue, civic chaos, and the infamous Hills of Badly Designed Signs.
Their adventure leads them to a castle tour gone wrong, where they overhear Chancellor Gumptrude and Baroness Bakeeasy plotting to overthrow the king and Princess Isobella.
Witty, surreal, and alarmingly relevant, Scrungle Bungus and the Magic Fungus is a razor-sharp satire of modern absurdity — proof that sometimes the most ridiculous worlds are barely fiction at all.

Purchase through Amazon for all formats. But you might get it for free if you have Kindle unlimited. 18 months of my life and my brother just went and downloaded it for free.
Purchase through Waterstones. Prefer this as I like Waterstones as a shop. They don't stock the hard back but I think this is because they fucking hate me.
eBook only but the landing page looks like a hard back.
