Jig the Goblin

If you haven't yet discovered Jig you owe yourself the pleasure.

Jig is a weedy little, nearsighted goblin who by the unlikeliest of means manages to become a great hero. I won't spoil the books by giving away any of the plot points. The first book reads like an old school dungeon crawl told from the monter's point of view. The other two are not so directly RPG inspired. All three are wickedly funny and skewer many popular heroic fantasy tropes.

This is great inspirational reading for T&T gamers. It captures all the elements that make T&T fun. Deadly traps, monsters, magic, and a sharp wit.
