Hey! My next book will be here before we know it, but YOU can get a sneak peek before it’s released!
Each day, I’m uploading a chapter onto my Patreon until the ENTIRE book is posted.
You can now read the first SEVEN chapters ABSOLUTELY FREE! Here’s a quick explanation of what a “murder hobo” is and what the book is about!
A “murder hobo” is a term that’s used in Role Playing Games like Dungeons & Dragons for people who resolve conflict through threats of violence and doing the violence. For example, a knight walks into a shop and wants to buy a sword. He asks how much it costs and the shopkeep tells him it’s 100 gold pieces. The knight doesn’t have that much gold. Here’s the distinction. A civilized person would say something like “Aww shucks, I don’t have that much gold. I’ll come back when I do.” Meanwhile, a Murder Hobo would A) Come up with some half-baked plan to steal the sword. B) Threaten/Intimidate the shopkeeper into a lower price or C) Shoot the man with an arrow, and while he’s frantically dealing with the extra hole in his body, grab the sword, cash register and anything else not bolted down.
THESE Murder Hobos are:
Wolfy: A Gnome Ranger who was raised by Wolves! He does all the gross things your dog does, but he also has a sword! He tends to have a short temper, and a very sharp sword…not a great combination.
Flurg: A Lady-Orc Barbarian who likes to SMASH SMASH with her club. She’s got the strength of 100 men, and the brains of 1/10 of a man. Swings first, asks questions later (if they still have teeth and a jawbone)
Cassie Goodfighter: A Human Knight Fighter… but her worst stats are in Strength and Dexterity making her anything BUT a “Good Fighter”. She’s the moral compass of the group, which would be great if they stopped and listened to her.
Pockets: A Whiskerkin (Cat Person) Thief who is a bit of a kleptomaniac. He’s really good at picking locks, and sneaking around, but he’s also really bad at leaving shiny things alone. If it’s shiny, he’s probably stopping to swipe it.
Follow the Murder Hobos as they face off against monsters like Dragons (oooooh), Goblins (ahhhhh) and the scariest of all… LUTE PLAYING BARDS (EEEEEEEEK!)
