He had been the governor for nine hours, and two of those hours had been a nap. Edmund Hale was a mid-tier game designer in Toronto. He died on a Tuesday. He woke up on a Wednesday in someone else's body, in someone else's coat, in someone else's office, holding someone else's seal of authority over a sun-blasted British outpost called Saint Caro.

A tax commissioner from London wants Edmund's head on a writ.

James is still pretending to be a hedge mage ...

Starter town. Starter dungeon. Starter harem. Level up everything. Jace needs one clean run to eat today. Instead, he walks out with a room deed, two teammates, and a target on his back. Starter Town calls it an F-rank—the kind of dungeon you clear in borrowed boots.
