The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

She just wants five minutes without magical paperwork, assassination attempts disguised as tax audits, or armies trying to storm her defenses. Armed with snark, monsters, and questionable allies—including a runaway princess with suspiciously useful knowledge—Sarah must outwit...

Dread Castle... As the name might imply, this is one dungeon not to be taken lightly. Good thing for me I’m experienced when it comes to raids. Get in and get out—that’s my motto.

I’ve been trained as a cheat, a thief, a charlatan, and a swindler. But though I’m good at what I do, nothing can prepare me for my final dungeon tour—into the abyss of Oberon’s Bane.
