The Outsorcerer’s Apprentice by Tom
Holt
If you look through the hole in a
food with a hole (optimally a doughnut, but bagels and fried onion rings will
work in a pinch) you can be transported to an alternate reality. That reality is one in which faery tales are
real. And the wizard is using the
denizens of this land as a massive resource for his businesses in our world,
nothing like outsourcing to sorcerers…
Love Terry Pratchett? I am pretty sure Holt is his brother by
another mother. This is absurd British humor and if you like that kind of thing
you will really enjoy this book. If you
think the very idea of looking through a doughnut and going to a land of
knights and dragons is utterly ridiculous and you couldn’t deal with the very
idea, please skip this book.
