Somewhere in this Underworld of Chicago, an enchanted weapon holds the key to ending The Gangland Wars. In the wake of The St. Valentine's Day Massacre, only one is man enough to stand up against Al Capone...

...a four-foot-one dwarf named Billibub Baddings.

Get ready for The Lord of the Rings written by Mickey Spillane! Poking fun at the hard-boiled detective novel, Fantasy mainstays, and even the legend of Chicago's 1920 underworld, MOREVI's Tee Morris returns to the podiobook arena...and this time, he's bringing a few friends along for the ride!

mature theme and some violence


(4.5 stars)

This audiobook is a theatrical performance, made epic by great voice artistry, with excellent music and sound effects. Well written, creative, Comedic, tongue in cheek, with mature themes and some violence. I do look fwd to The next adventure from the mind, heart and spirit of Tee Morris, along with the talented people who choose to be part of this amazingly complex,imaginative achievement

An epiphany on the name


(5 stars)

I read the name, and was literally all "Billibub Baddings? Haha, that sounds a little like good ol' Bilbo! I gotta tell the world about my amazing discovery," but then I read the summary and was like "Uh... so I guess this is a LOTR parody. Dang, I must be smart like heck!"

Wow what a great book!!! I listened to it a few months ago before I even had an Ipod. You know it has to be good to get someone to sit at their computer and listen to an audiobook for hours on end. Thanks for your masterful work on this ...
