Novels in the series are: * Castle Perilous * Castle for Rent * Castle Kidnapped * Castle War! * Castle Murders * Castle Dreams * Castle Spellbound * Bride of the Castle Join Gene, Linda, Snowclaw, Sheila, Thaxton and Dalton, Kwip, Jeremy, and many, many more as they search for a way home, learn to adapt, and have incredible adventures both ridiculous and frightening, all while Lord Incarnadine and his family work to keep the castle and its 144,000 worlds stable and safe (though not always sane). It's thought-provoking, it's crazy, it's weird, and it's unexpected, but it's almost always hilarious. Sadly, the author seems to have abandoned the series, leaving it on quite the Cliff Hanger, but it is still worth a read for its entertainment value alone.
