Welcome, curious friend, to Barbara’s Bookshelf, a glittering shrine to the ‘literary masterpieces‘ of Barbara Dongswallower herself. Yes, that Barbara. The one with the absurdly large spectacles and an ego that could drown a dragon. Author of such notable works as ‘All Choked Up’, ‘A Tight Fit’, and ‘In Too Deep’, Barbara’s prose has kept people on the edge for an agonizingly long time.
A renowned storyteller, scandalous wordsmith, and master of innuendo-laced intrigue, Barbara Dongswallower is a literary icon and legendary provocateur whose best-selling romance novels have set tongues wagging from noble courts to back-alley taverns. With a flair for the dramatic, a wardrobe as flamboyant as her prose, and a pair of unapologetically ostentatious spectacles, she is equal parts artist, gossipmonger, and charming rogue.
A woman of wit, wiles, and well-placed whispers, Barbara is as infamous for the secrets she uncovers as she is for the passions she writes, leveraging her fame to bypass gatekeepers, access restricted archives, and “research” in places no ordinary citizen could tread. A frequenter of Kael’Gelden’Varis’ Wolf’s Head Tavern, she is known to grace its halls with readings, scandalous anecdotes, and the occasional illicit manuscript exchange.
Though her first novel Sheri Honkers and the Gelatinous Boob remains out-of-print and a legendary collector’s item, Barbara’s more recent bestsellers; such as ‘A Hand on the Hilt‘, ‘In Too Deep’, ‘All Choked Up’, and ‘A Tight Fit’, have secured her place as the queen of courtly smut. Whether she’s weaving tales, seducing secrets, or stirring the pot of high society, one thing is certain:
Where there’s a whisper of scandal, a well-turned phrase, or a particularly firm grip, Barbara Dongswallower is never far behind.
Below, you’ll find select titles from Barbara’s ever-expanding collection of bodice-ripping, dagger-twirling, politically scandalous adventures. Are they entirely factual? Absolutely not. Are they entertaining? Regrettably, yes.
So go on, peruse this page and perhaps prepare to question your taste in literature. For every coin you spend, I get a fraction of a copper and slightly more leverage in our ongoing war of egos.
