Gladesbale Grove 2 #3
Gladesbale Grove 3
Protector of the Forest. Purveyor of Snacks
Rud has the custodian thing mostly figured out. Gladesbale Grove is thriving. Not only is the tea excellent, but his best friend is a sapient tree.
Of course, the system drops a giant tower of doom in his backyard to spice things up.
A monster-spawning mega-structure would put the brakes on most people’s tea business. Rud sees a business opportunity. If every adventurer on the continent is about to descend on his forest to climb the tower, they’re going to need somewhere to stay. That means a welcome center, hot meals, baths, and maybe even a water park with three slides of varying speeds.
Between the ruins buried under his grove, the tower looming over his garden, the labyrinth sprawling for miles, and the time-traveling goblin, Rud wonders if he’s less of a “guardian of the forest” and more “cat wrangler.”
From the bestselling author of Newt and Demon comes Book 3 in this new low-stakes Cozy Fantasy LitRPG adventure oozing with wit, charm, and lovable characters.

Wonderful
This series just keeps getting better and better with each new book. I was so mad when this book ended I just wanted to keep on reading. The regular and new characters just keep getting more interesting as the story unfolds. I can't wait to see what interesting and craziness that Pult brings with him.
