Produktbeschreibung

Daniel Avril's first short story collection, The Herrscher Files contains five unique stories from multiple genres ranging from fantasy, sci-fi, and comedy, all telling gripping tales that'll keep you at the edge of your seat. The whole book is about 4000 words in total.

The first title in this collection is "The Herrscher's Revenge," which puts you in the shoes of an elite warrior sent to investigate an anomaly that's swallowing his city and threatening its people. While inside the anomaly, he's confronted by a powerful entity called the Herrscher, who manifests to stop him. The second short story, "The Lantern of Hate," centers around a disgruntled inventor, whose business is all but stripped from him. After stealing the heart of a vengeful spirit from the Special Containment Unit, he plans to amass an army of robots to take revenge on the company that defunded him but gets interrupted when an SCU agent tracks him down. The third short story, "The Lightning Queen," is set after a great war between two goddesses and a human clan hungry for their power. While waiting for her slain sister to resurrect, the wounded goddess of destruction is ambushed by a human clan and prepares for one final clash. The fourth short story, "The Blitz Bop Craze," follows a young Cody working from home when he is distracted by an ad featuring a special-edition board game. His obsession with collecting board games, along with an enthusiastic pet fox, compels him to dig into his savings and race to buy the board game before anyone else. The final short story, "Amaterasu's Haven," is a sci-fi retelling of the popular myth based on the Japanese goddess of the sun. While running a nightclub, Amaterasu prepares for the worst when her meddlesome brother Susanoo visits her, wishing to play a game of chess. She believes he will not cause any trouble.
