The Soddit by Adam Roberts
A small, comfort-loving halfling is reluctantly swept from his cozy home into a ludicrous, perilous quest with a blustering wizard and a motley band of dwarves to reclaim a hoard from a dragon; along the way the journey riffs on and lampoons high-fantasy conventions with anachronisms, biting satire, wordplay, and absurd set pieces that undercut heroic pretension while still delivering rogues, riddles, battles, and an ultimately uproarious take on courage, greed, and storytelling itself.
