ABOUT HE WHO FIGHTS WITH MONSTERS: What’s it like to wake up in a mysterious world of magic and monsters? It’s not easy. For Jason, making the career jump from office—supplies—store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer is surreal. Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants. ABOUT TRAVIS DEVERELL: Travis Deverell, A.K.A. Shirtaloon, was working on a very boring academic paper when he realised that writing about an inter—dimensional kung fu wizard would be way more fun. It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. To his surprise and delight, Deverell found a warm and welcoming audience in the world of online serialized fiction. Transitioning his work into actual books, he is continually startled at the appetite for his particular blend of high magic, wild adventure and absurd nonsense. Success has allowed Shirtaloon to fund an excessive board game collection he doesn’t have time to play because he’s always writing. The unplayed games sit on the shelves behind him as he works, silently judging. Travis Deverell, A.K.A.
