The Adventurer and The Bureaucrat
He’s lost. He’s lethal. He’s allergic to paperwork.
Meet The Adventurer—a blissfully mapless wanderer with a sword, a smile, and a baffling knack for surviving things he really shouldn't. He's the kind of guy who takes down goblin infestations without breaking a sweat and says “no reward necessary” like he actually means it.
Tasked with auditing this enigma is Bardolemue, an uptight guild bureaucrat with a clipboard, a crossbow, and absolutely no patience for chaos. But when a routine goblin-clearing mission uncovers ancient ruins, resurrected skeletons, mirror-wielding demons, and literal fairy tale princesses, Bardolemue starts questioning everything—including reality, his job, and maybe even his own soul.
The Adventurer and The Bureaucrat is a genre-bending, wildly irreverent fantasy adventure that mashes up sword-swinging action with bureaucratic banter, eldritch mysteries, and deeply personal stakes. Think Discworld meets The Witcher, with a dash of Douglas Adams absurdity and a core of unexpected heart.
If you like your fantasy clever, weird, and uncomfortably honest about the paperwork involved in slaying monsters, this is the book for you.
