About this ebook

★★★★★ "Reading Dragon Slayer's Guild provided an escape into a rich, beautiful world and high-stakes story. It also shone a light on how, while enemies may not be dragons, the way we treat others and our ability to stand up for others is key to truly living a full life, even if we think our own voice/imprint on this world is too small to count." -- USA Today Bestselling Author Katherine D. Graham
 

Three outcasts against the world. Can they steal a relic and slay a dragon without killing each other first?

 

Selene is a dark elf assassin exiled to seek enlightenment. To atone for past sins, she metes out justice from the shadows with swift fists and silent blades. But rumors haunt the night of a dragon whose fiery wrath burns the just and unjust alike. And that cannot stand.  

 

Abbey is the jaded new gnome in town. The same jealous rivals that drove her father to his death have ousted her from the guilds. All she wants now is to lie low and be forgotten. If only she could turn a blind eye to the corruption all around her... 

 

Silver-tongued thief Solomon needs only the money in his (or your) pocket and the girl on his arm. Although becoming king of the criminal underworld sounds nice too. Unless it kills him. Sol should know by now: ambition's a bitch.

 

When their entangled fates threaten to strangle them all, this trio of outsiders have but two options: band together or die alone.

 

Dragon Slayers' Guild is the back-alley brawl of heroic fantasy trading blows with dungeon punk and urban fantasy. If you like gritty storytelling, rogue antiheroes, and dark humor, you'll love the Hand of Fate.

Author

J. D. Brink

If taking a college fencing class, eating from the trash can, and smelling like an animal were qualifications for becoming a sword-swinging barbarian, J. D. Brink might be Conan’s protégé. But since that career path seemed less than promising, he has instead been a sailor, spy, nurse, and officer in the U.S. Navy, as well as a gravedigger, insurance adjuster, and school teacher in civilian life. Today (fall, 2014) he and his family live in Japan, where he's providing a bad example for all Americans. In his writing, as in life, Mr. Brink enjoys dabbling in multiple genres.
