Description
Arthur Jenkins would have been happy to live his life the way it was until he finally died, but the angel in his office has different ideas. He's there to grant a wish Arthur made as a kid, and it's a doozy. It's also a wish he doesn't want in the slightest. After all, what grown man would want to be a barbarian hero? Seriously! Whether he wants it or not, Arthur is getting that wish granted. Angels have quotas too, you know. Join Arthur, Dead Mike and Valeria the Paladin on a quest across the land, having unwanted adventures while looking for a comfy place to sit.
About the author
John Haas is an award winning Canadian author living in the nation's capital of Ottawa, Ontario. He grew up in Montreal, Quebec and also lived for many years in Calgary, Alberta.
Since his early days he's enjoyed writing and telling stories. Over the years he's found ways to incorporate that into whatever else he's been doing, and there has been a long list of jobs. He's worked as a camp counsellor, professional driver, theatrical technician, stage manager, director, courier, independent business owner, hotel night auditor, office manager, health & safety inspector, handyman, school bus driver and service management specialist. It's entirely possible that a job or two has been forgotten over the years.
When not writing or working John loves to be with his two wonderful kids, doing all kinds of family stuff.
