What’s an exasperated bodyguard to do when his naive healer boss thrusts him right in the middle of a demonic pig fighting ring?

Ghdion, the grumpy swordsman hired to protect the priestess-in-training Quay, finds himself the target of a vicious demonic boar named Princess, scourge of the village of Little Rushford.

Can the combined efforts of the practical fighter and well-meaning priestess stop Princess from wreaking absolute havoc?

It was a super fun, quick read! It really did a great job of introducing the characters, setting, and environment that I'm looking forward to reading more of in the Faith and Ruin series.

I loved this short introduction to Quay and Ghdion! It had me thoroughly entertained the whole way through. I can’t wait to read Faith and Ruin now.
