The Wayward Mage Bounty
(2024)(The third book in the Shadow Blades Chronicles series)
A novel by Patrick Dugan
Cowboy Bebop meets the Witcher
After semi-successfully tracking down their missing person, one Elladon Kane, far across the
land in the realm of the Elves, the Saria and the Shadow Blades are given yet another quest. But
the reward for this one won’t be coin—it will be the very survival of Southern Holm. Saria was
right about Brar Opalback. The sorceress’s interest in artifacts, according to Kane, will result in a
dragon scourge that will put all previous monster invasions to shame if she’s not stopped.
That is, if Kane can be trusted.
Considering they have avoided death by dragon, death by zombie, death by troll, death by
assassination, and death by food poisoning, surely they can sidestep death by vengeful elves,
death by dragon (again), and death by angry dwarves to locate the artifact that can defeat the
malicious sorceress. After that, what’s a little death by lava, death by dehydration, death by
another dragon (are you kidding me now?), death by giant bats, death by poison, and death by
whatever else Brar Opalback throws at them when they attempt to stop her from destroying
Southern Holm forever?
Genre: Fantasy
