Wily is not settling easily into his new role as the King-to be. Any time he tries to rule, the people around him want more than he can give. Then they get mad and say he’s just like his father, the evil king. Stalag the mage, Wily’s former captor also has evil plans and Wily needs to collect a new set of adventurers if he is going to have any chance to thwart Stalag’s plans.
I do have to hope that this doesn’t turn into a long multi volume arch of just Wily vs Stalag. I want it to be more like Mark Forman’s Adventurers Wanted series or Zack Clark’s Adventurer’s Guild. Epstein has the writing chops for it for sure.
