Even a Hero Needs a Vacation Every Now and Then: Tipsy Pelican Tavern Vol. 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781961789098)

Archibold Stormblood-savior of kingdoms, slayer of dark lords, wielder of the Ninth Gate-begs to differ. He's done with all that. The axes are hung up, magic's sealed, and the only thing he wants to conquer now is the art of brewing the perfect ale.

In the bustling city of Meritas, Archibold opens the Tipsy Pelican Tavern-a haven for half-true tales, rowdy patrons, and barmaids with murky pasts. But peace and quiet don't come easy when the world keeps reminding you that you were never built for peace.

Between spilled mugs and flung spells, Archibold finds himself in the one battle he never trained for: running a tavern full of troublemakers he can't help but care about.

A witty, warm-hearted fantasy of laughter, ale, and reluctant heroism, the Tipsy Pelican Tavern series is for readers who loved the charm of Legends & Lattes, the humor of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and the crisp satisfaction of that first cold pint after a long day. It's about friendship and rediscovering oneself in the life that comes after everything has already been won and lost.
