The first book of the Ebenezum trilogy, "Malady of Magicks," is one of the funniest works of fantasy ever written. The sequel, "Multitude of Monsters," is not quite up to the same level of excellence. It felt like Gardner (whose first book was originally a cluster of short stories) was still getting used to the whole "novel" way of writing.
This novel picks up where "Malady" left off, with the magic-allergic wizard Ebenezum, his hormone-addled apprentice Wuntvor, the relentlessly truthful demon Snarks, and the none-too-swift-but-has-a-big-club warrior Hendrek ("Doom!"). They're still heading for the City of Forbidden Delights (and Wuntvor still can't wait), but they encounter unexpected delays in the form of Brownies, Brax the Salesdemon ("Along with your hellishly small fine print!"), the beautiful witch Norei, and a collection of magical beasties who want equal recognition as unicorns. (There is a unicorn too, who appears a little obsessed with pointing out that Wuntvor is a virgin) Any problems? Well, the demons are invading, and Ebenezum seems to have gotten himself into a giant shoe...
This is quite different in its layout. While the first book was a series of interconnected vignettes, this is a single, longer story. As a result, there is a different feel to it. Gardner seems to get a little stuck on some continuing themes (like the monster organization) and they last a little longer and become a little more serious than they should.
That said, the characters are as delightful as ever. Poor Ebenezum still sneezes up a storm whenever he's near magic; Wuntvor falls instantly in love with any female characters nearby him. Hendrek is not as full-fleshed as the others; Snarks is still great fun, though a little less prominent. Other faves like the "Damsel and the Dragon" show up, as does the deliciously slimy salesdemon Brax and the fearsome Guxx Unfufadoo.
