The Vagrant Promises, by Graydon Russell
The chaplain has a plan: take the cursed book, make a fortune, and disappear.
The only problem? He can’t touch it. So, the new plan revolves around a smalltown girl the book refuses to let go of. Add to his troubles a demon’s pursuit, a talking Calico, and a low tolerance for mild inconveniences, he traverses a world filled with boogiemen, shadowy figures, and greedy salamanders. Alliances shift, loyalties are tested, and chaos seems determined to follow them to the end.
The Vagrant Promises is a darkly whimsical adventure about unlikely heroes, detestable con men, and the strange, stubborn ways people—and cats—find courage. For anyone who loves high fantasy with a wink, clashing personalities, and a story that grows its characters like plants, some flowers and some weeds, this is a journey you won’t want to miss.
