A cozy side-quest fantasy adventure, set in the same fantasy multiverse as the Barnes & Noble Top 100 bestseller The Bartender Between Worlds.
A weary warrior. A restless baker. A magical side quest neither of them asked for, but both might need.
Rudy had hoped that setting up shop in a new town would quiet his restless spirit, but something inside him still longs for more. He's a quiet baker with a kind heart and an uncanny knack for pastries.
When a hidden portal tucked inside a local pub opens into the dwarven realm of Hybarn, Rudy is pulled from his daily routine and dropped into a fantastical world filled with dwarves, dragons, and dire wolves.
Before he can make sense of where he is or why, he's swept up in a mission with a ragtag team of dwarves to head deep into the mountains. Their long-shot goal is to find a witch rumored to possess a lost magic. A forgotten power that might help the dwarves win their war and also send Rudy home.
Leading the expedition is Tarvo, a wounded warrior with more grit than patience, who would rather be back on the battlefield than babysitting a human baker in the wilderness. But what begins as an inconvenient detour slowly becomes something more.
Embark on a healing journey shaped by hard-won trust and the bonds we build when we least expect them.
Flour & Forge is perfect for anyone who believes that while pastry might not save the world, it can help make it a world worth saving.
"It's The Hobbit meets The Wizard of Oz in this charming, feel-good fantasy adventure."
