A dark elf on the run. A busted wand. And absolutely no plan whatsoever.

When Ransom, a moderately handsome dark elf with a sketchy work ethic and a knack for getting kicked out of towns, arrives in Plainsgate, he's got big dreams: eat well, make easy coin, and definitely not get shackled to a mining job in the armpit of the realm.

Things... do not go as planned.

Instead of fame and fortune, he finds himself stuck underground with shady employers, magical contracts, and a very angry ogre who doesn't understand personal space. His only way out? Outwit everyone, stay alive, and somehow glue his shattered magical life back together before it collapses—literally—on top of him.

Fast-paced, laugh-out-loud funny, and packed with spellbinding adventure, Ransom the Handsome is a wildly funny, thrilling fantasy escape that will whisk readers into a world of daring escapades, heart-stopping magic, and unforgettable characters.
