A Market in the Maelstrom
A pubkeep in purgatory helps foster a friendly community in the face of monstrous terror in the final installment of this cozy LitRPG fantasy series.
Sylas Runewulf has a busy schedule for a dead man. Since taking up residency in the Underworld town of Ember Hollow, the fallen warrior has become a pub owner, a brewer, and a farmer. Now he’s opening a long-awaited market for rare goods.
Furthermore, Sylas’s social life is flourishing, with a cozy community of friends and neighbors and a budding romance to boot. He also has a fiercely protective cat, Patches, and dog, Cornbread, and plans to add a magical goose to the mix. Everything seems to be coming together nicely. Except . . .
Danger continues to encroach upon Ember Hollow. The daily warnings Sylas receives of an impending onslaught from the Chasm’s fiery hell can no longer be ignored. He must alert his entire community before it’s too late.
Meanwhile, the magical barrier between the realms has suffered a breach. Patches and Cornbread can sense a deadly monster roaming the nearby forest―but it’ll take more than a cat and dog to keep the town safe.
