The Artificer’s Apprentice

★ 4.3

Tom Watts

Greetings, friend! Rest here for a while and listen - I have a quest for you.

How would you like to begin an apprenticeship in the mystical craft of artificery? You’ll learn things that most people can only dream of. You’ll make swords with self-sharpening blades, bows that fire by themselves, and clocks that can read the future.

Even better, you’ll get to live in the sunlit village of Sunhampton, a sleepy little crafter’s village of cobbled streets, cozy taverns, and pleasant bakeries.

If this sounds like just the life for you, then grab a beer and a sweet roll, and follow Lewis as he begins his new life as an apprentice.

Lewis comes from a family who don’t regard him much, so he sets out on his own into the world, intent on securing an apprenticeship in an interesting profession. What he doesn’t expect is to find himself studying one of the most mystical arts in the land.

It’ll be hard work. Perhaps even dangerous work. But with an old artificery master to teach him, and the friends that he makes to help him, he’s sure he’ll get there.

Why not get yourself over to the cozy town of Sunhampton and join him on his quest?

Unveil

★ 4.31

A.P. Gore

Betrayed by her love. Kidnapped by goons. Sunk into the bottom of the ocean.

Kiara has nothing going good for her, and all her avenues of escape are closed.

Her only chance of survival is joining a game that could let her find her dad and solve all her problems.
But life never gives you a straight road. If she wants to contact her dad, she has to become a member of the top guild of the whole game.

Can she do it?

Weighed down by debt. Cheated on by his girlfriend. Left alone by all his college friends.

George has nothing going right for him, and all his hopes float on a lone log in this sea of desperation.

His only option to get past everything is playing the game he loves, and play it so well that he can lift himself—and his only sister—out of the gutter they were thrown in.
But life always throws curveballs, and so it throws Kiara in George's path.

Stuck with a girl who knows nothing about the game, his way out is filled with monsters and enemy guilds.

Can he do it?

If you love crafting, grinding, and large-scale battles—or if you’re here because of my other series (Glory of Formation Emperor) to see Jon’s daughter’s journey—then you will love this book.
