The Cream of the Slay
(2025)(The first book in the Hearth & Hunters series)
A novel by David Sung and A C Whitney
Sometimes the hardest quest is building a home.
When a burned-out coder wakes up dead in a fantasy world with a sarcastic house spirit, a crumbling cottage, and a video-game HUD welded to his vision, he figures things can’t get worse. Then he eats the wrong berries, triggers a magical disaster, and draws the attention of monsters, an alchemist with dangerous curves, and a scholar who thinks he’s her next research project.
Now survival isn’t just about fixing up a cottage; it’s about navigating Hollow Beasts, simmering chemistry, and the possibility that ‘home’ might mean more than four walls and a roof.
The Hearth & Hunters explores mature material and unconventional relationships. Reader discretion advised.
Genre: GameLit
