Can this legendary hero keep his humble tavern safe from criminals, corrupt officials, and those who might expose his secret? Archibold Stormblood, Visseria’s greatest hero, is finally taking a break. After two centuries spent battling dark lords and saving the world, he figures he’s earned a little peace—or so he hopes. Leaving his legendary past behind, Archibold now lives as an unassuming mortal nineteen-year-old, running the Tipsy Pelican Tavern, where he brews tasty spell-chilled ales and enjoys stories and laughs with his quirky patrons. Trouble is the last thing he needs in his life—especially any trouble in the form of the White Church, corrupt officials, crime syndicates, or whatever his iron-willed barmaids manage to stir up. With his immortal powers sealed and his true identity a closely guarded secret, can Archibold hold onto his hard-won peace, or will he be forced to don the mantle of hero once more? Join the thousands of readers who are raving about the Tipsy Pelican Tavern series, an unputdownable fantasy adventure spiced with unique magic, tense action, laugh-out-loud humor, and a foaming mug of wit and heart. "A happy medium between cozy and epic—a truly satisfying read." — Tom Bookbeard, FanfiAddictZum Buch
To swim in that river full of shining stones was one of the most beautiful things that ever happened in her life. Somehow she knew the names of the stones: emerald, ruby, topaz, sapphire, sardonyx, onyx, jade, pearl, lapis lazuli... she just didn't see any diamonds. It made her think of her grandma’s jewelry box, the one she found in the room where grandmother lived. It was one of those boxes that, when you lifted the lid, a ballerina appeared twirling at the sound of a funny song.” After following a rainbow through the door, Giovanna found herself in a completely different place and having the adventure of a lifetime, the biggest a 10 years old could ever dream of. What she’s going to experience does not happen everyday and is not for the faint of heart. This book will take you on a delightful adventure, the kind of adventure that can only happen when you are 10 years old. By following the Call of Laniwai, Giovanna will leave sadness, boredom and loneliness behind. Life is supposed to be light and FUN!Zum Buch
