The Self Published Fantasy Blog-Off 6 semi finalist, now in audio.
Finance: The lifeblood of any country’s beating heart and the life’s work of Sailor Kelstern — Merchant Banker. While wizards brood in their towers and great warriors charge into battle, Sailor is more interested in the price of ore, herbs, and alchemicals carried by the trade ships.
But when a spell of bad fortune and bitter rivalry leaves him scrambling to turn a profit on little more than winds and whispers, one such whisper catches Sailor’s ear — a dragon has been seen in the west.
Sailor soon finds that the dragons are very real, and not at all what he expected. And they practice a very different sort of economy — one of subterfuge and fire.
A standalone novel of epic fantasy and adventure capitalism from the author of Vick's Vultures, with bonus novelette: "Forego Quest".

Finance, the lifeblood of any country’s beating heart and the life’s work of Sailor Kelstrom. Sailor, a merchant banker, is more interested in investments. A spell of misfortune leaves him scrambling to turn a profit. He soon hears whispers about a dragon and sets forth on a journey to convert the dragon’s fortune into one that is widely accepted in the world.
I have not found a book that dives into the finance and economy as this one does. There is quite a bit of information about the economy and economic trade within the world. I was a bit disappointed in the lack of worldbuilding that is present. There are quick glances into the world. There is not enough to fully imagine the world, but just enough to keep the story moving. We learn a fair amount about Sailor, but not so much about the supporting characters. Sailor dives deep into the finance world and we learn quite a bit about the trade. There are plenty of quick wit moments with tongue in cheek humor. The ending was a bit fast, with a sort of expected twist, but I would not let this deter you from checking this out. Overall, I found this to be a good story.
Scott Warren Narrates his story. His voice was smooth and there were no issues. His fluctuations and changes to character voices were pleasant.
