Books:
Land of Outcasts
A world-weary gunslinger. A snarky battle unicorn. A new job at the edge of the known world. What could go wrong?
ELI ALWAYS HAS A PLAN. Whether those plans work is another matter entirely. Hiding from bounty hunters after a job gone wrong, Eli and his battle-unicorn partner, Sasha, hope to be forgotten in the expansive swampland known as The Green. When a woman named Marion offers them a job—help track down her banished father deeper in The Green—it seems like the perfect payday to tide them over.
However, surrounded by a web of secrets and with a dangerous enemy following behind, Eli and Sasha will discover that bandits and monsters are the least of their worries. Even if they survive The Green, completing their job and finding a way to go home will be no easy task. What’s a pair of mercenaries to do when faced with a dire situation and no good choices?
Something stupid, probably.
