The Unexpected Adventures of Clive (English Edition)

Clive, a timid Englishman and the sole survivor of an air crash, finds himself washed up on the beach of another world. There he meets Ggydren, the Keeper of the Door and finds that he must first undertake a quest before standing any chance of getting home again. This quest, to rescue a princess, involves shape shifters, an evil baron, a cowardly king, some violent yobs, an intergalactic policeman, a space pirate and a mysterious community of women who share a shameful secret; not to mention lots of action and excitement along the way. Oh, and there is a metal rod, part of the aeroplane that crashed, that seems to have a crucial part to play in all of this.
