Story
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Story
Rob didn't think of himself as anyone special, but when a pitch-black portal tried to wrap his best friend in chains, he stepped up without thinking and found himself ensnared instead. His moment of heroism results in being torn away from everyone he knew and loved, kidnapped by an unknown force that leaves him with a note in his pocket stating: "Good luck." After being thrown into the wilderness of Elatra, a hostile fantasy world ruled by levels, stats, progression, and bizarre video game logic, he finds himself entirely out of his depth.

Story
It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

An aggressive debt collector banished from the kingdom. Now his life depends on his ability to help the less fortunate....
Vireo Reinhold relishes collecting his monarch’s proper dues. Working hard to prolong and fund the king’s never-ending war, the self-centered official revels in the perks of luxury that come with his unorthodox role. But his world upends when he unearths an ancient spellbook that promises to unlock a shadowy, forgotten magic. Embroiled in a secret affair with a fellow noble’s wife, Vireo is mortified when he’s forced to commit an unthinkable act.

Can Vireo redeem himself as the people’s champion before they all fall to a sinister fate?

Better than I expected!
I enjoyed this book. It was easy to follow, captivating and a clever retake on Robin Hood.
I like fantasy but sometimes it can be a bit much. This was well writen and quite refreshing. Hopefully book two will be just as good or better.

This got better as the story went on
At first I disliked Verio very
Much but by the end he became very
Likeable. Heck. I’m a sucker for a band of misfits.

Loved it.
Honestly it’s a great story just wish it was longer. I like the character perspectives, and the romanticism behind the actions the growth in the character arc, but I wish the voice in Jarod’s head was explained after
