An ancient legend. A snarky sword. And a reluctant hero who’s about to regret everything. Nate Arturi never wanted to save the world.

Ambushed by an alien monster, saddled with a sarcastic sword, and scammed by a scruffy wizard claiming to be the Merlin, Nate is thrown into an adventure that’s way above his pay grade.
