SPFBO8

Turning Fools into Gold When all the heroes have been taken, fools will have to do. Frederic D’Aprile is a warrior on a mission to right the wrongs of his country. When he finds himself outnumbered by the Ebon Hammer, he knows he needs help from unlikely places. He isn’t expecting the mad wizard, Bixby Alladocious, to live up to his name. Together, warrior and wizard set out on a quest to bring together new heroes battling with self-doubt and fears in a world that doesn’t take kindly to people with strange blessings like the Strain. But, united, they believe they can finally stand up to the tyranny taking hold in the nation of Blacklehn.
