Flint Dagger Dr. Gnoll: Volume 1, (Paperback)

The name is Dagger. Flint Dagger. As codename Quartz, an agent of M.O.U.N.T.A.I.N. (the Ministry of Unorthodox Natural Talents and Information-Nabbing), I'm regularly tasked with the most difficult, world-saving assignments, which I always complete with grace and panache. (And successfully, I might add. Is the world still here? You're welcome.) My latest mission briefing from "D" The nefarious Dr. Gnoll is building a machine that will give him power over all magic on Ados. Unfortunately, both a rival agent - Maxine Charisma (don't smirk at me like that) - and Dr. Gnoll's henchgnolls are already en route to the location of the MacGuffin Rod, an artifact that Dr. Gnoll needs to complete his plans. You must secure the MacGuffin Rod at all costs and prevent Dr. Gnoll from activating his machine. To assist you, Kew, the head of the Ministry's magic division, has outfitted you with the latest magical tools, including a magical clockwork horse to speed you on your journey. The future of all magic is at stake, so godsspeed. A noble steed. A sexy rival. A dangerous artifact. A bunch of incompetent minions (they always are). A megalomaniacal villain (they always are, too). A world-threatening master plan. Time to go to work.
