An Unexpected Hero
(2024)(The first book in the So You Want to be a Hero series)
A novel by Rhett C Bruno and Jaime Castle
"Is it funny? No. It's effing hilarious!"—Matt Dinniman, author of Dungeon Crawler Carl
Sorry... Really? Thrust? Anyway, Danny Kendrick was a down-on-his luck performer who always struggled to find his place. He certainly never wanted to be a hero. He just hoped to earn a living doing what he loved.
That all changes when he pisses off the wrong guy and gets sucked into a fantasy realm straight out of a Renaissance Fair.
Getting used to a new world is tough. It’s even tougher when you’re surrounded by axe-wielding barbarians, super hot elf assassins, strange magic, and a System AI that seems as interested in causing trouble as helping... or maybe just wasn't interested in being assigned yet another companion in the first place.
Danny must adapt fast, turn on the charm, and learn to emrace his given Class if he hopes to master it and survive this dangerous new place.
But he has a knack for finding trouble. Gifted what seems like an innocent ancient lute after making a questionable deal with a Hag, Danny becomes the target of mysterious factions who seek to claim its power.
It's up to him, Screenie, and his new barbaric friend, Curr, to uncover the truth and become the heroes nobody knew they needed. And maybe, just maybe, Danny will finally find a place where he belongs. Perhaps, even where he'll thrive.
Jump into this fantasy isekai LitRPG Adventure filled with unforgettable characters, loveable companions, unlikely heroes, slow-build power progression, and plenty of comedy. It's perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl, Scott Meyer's Off to be the Hero, and This Trilogy is Broken!
Come for the Adventure, stay for the Laughs!
