I had new cupcakes to bake, a new treasure to hunt, and a new dragon in town — literally. Who wouldn’t be ecstatic filling their days with chocolate, trinket collecting, and martial arts training? Yeah … me. Because no matter how much chocolate I ate, I couldn’t fill the dark pit in my soul. A darkness born from blood alchemy. A darkness that reeked of the black magic I now knew I was capable of creating. Maybe it was time to walk away. But what if there were important things left to do? What if I was the only one who could do what needed to be done? I wasn’t sure I could handle the responsibility, but as long as I had my chocolate stash and a good friend to back me up, I was willing to give it a try.

"Fueled by Tolkien's sweat, Willy Wonka's blood, and Clint Eastwood's attitude." Minutes after being drawn into the Monsters, Maces and Magic world as their characters, the unsuspecting players fell under attack. Kim, having become the warrior monk Byeol, didn’t survive, thanks to a rampaging ogre. But the party’s quest to obtain a Revive the Dead Spell for Kim proved futile. Fortunately, rather than departing, her soul entered the party’s vacant soul gem. Such enchanted gems are rare and valuable. Somehow word of the party’s treasure has reached Black Venom, leader of the local thieves’ guild. He offers the party a deal they can’t refuse: They get Byeol back, he gets their vacant soul gem. If only it was that easy. Nothing of consequence in the Monsters, Maces and Magic world is ever safe. Or easy. Praise for Monsters, Maces and Magic “Ervin’s imagination is fueled by Tolkien's sweat, Willy Wonka's blood, and Clint Eastwood's attitude. A crazy mix to be certain, but a combination that makes for amazing possibilities.” Ray Johnson, LitRPG Audiobook Podcast “Exciting and hilarious! It feels like a true game with friends.” Dueling Ogres Podcast “I was pulled into the world and could see the rules of the world unfold. This really does feel like a game. A fun game that I am going to have to continue.” Casia’s Corner
