About this series
How many times does a blacksmith need to save a damsel in distress before he can be called a hero? Well, Gioncavallo has lost the count. It seems he's been doing nothing but saving damsels in distress. But who's putting the poor women in distress in the first place? Who has been pulling the strings, hidden behind the curtain, but always making sure that Gioncavallo knows his friends are in danger?
Our favorite blacksmith is finally getting some answers. But behind each answer lie ten more questions. Will Gioncavallo discover why this hidden enemy is so focused on him? Will he manage to save his friends? Will he manage to make more friends than enemies this time around, for once? And most importantly, will he escape unscathed, or is this Gioncavallo's final adventure?
