Bound for Ruin

Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks: Book 1

Jaleigh Johnson

To become renowned adventurers, this party needs to survive their first job...

Tessalynde is an ambitious young rogue who dreams of leading Faerûn's foremost adventuring party. While the crew she's gathered isn't the stuff of legend yet, she's confident her guidance can get them there.

The team: Anson, a fighter too stubborn to stay down, even when the odds are stacked against him. Cazrin, a self-taught wizard determined to test her theoretical mettle against the real world. Baldric, a cleric who refuses to tie himself to a single deity when he can trade favors with them all. Lark, a bard with as many secrets as songs. And, of course, Uggie, a monstrous pet otyugh who loves giving hugs and eating trash.

Their first job: recovering a mysterious spellbook from a lost temple for a hefty payout. Tess hopes this assignment can turn her group of fledgling freelancers into a true team. But when their client is killed, their coin and his murderer both vanish, leaving the party to take the fall.

Stuck with a sentient, bloodthirsty grimoire and pursued by mercenaries and the undead, this is hardly the mission Tess envisioned. Her crew must save the day, get the gold, and clear the party's name--which they haven't even agreed upon yet! With the threats against them mounting, a single mistake will see this party over before it even begins.

Can this band of mismatched misfits stay together in the face of danger? Or are they bound for ruin?

Dealing with Dragons

Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks: Book 2

Jaleigh Johnson

The Fallbacks rush to balance the scales before a draconic foe reaps their cleric's soul...

When the day is threatened by tyrannical foes or monstrous fiends, the people of Faerûn place their trust in the realm's mighty heroes. When the mighty heroes don't show up, they get the Fallbacks.

The team: A flamboyant bard with a bandstand's worth of secrets. A wizard whose thirst for knowledge leads her to triumph and trouble. A virtuous fighter with a family that's anything but. A cunning rogue just trying to keep everyone together.

And then there's the party's cleric. Baldric has always had an unorthodox approach to divinity. While other folk of faith hitch their wagons to one god or another, this cleric figures that if his magic and might can serve many gods and reap the rewards of the entire pantheon, everyone wins. But there's a price to be paid for the power to protect Faerûn. And every debt must one day be collected.

Baldric finds himself cut off from his connection to the divine when a mysterious and otherworldly entity starts to invade his negotiations. And this entity wants more than Baldric's service--it wants his soul.

The Fallbacks race to free their cleric from his shadowy debtholder, but the heat is on--in more ways than one--because the being trying to lay claim to Baldric isn't exactly a god. Forget striking bargains with deities. To get out of this jam, the Fallbacks will have to deal with dragons.
