Shipwrecks, pirates, bounty hunters, and monsters - good thing Timid Stormwind knows his fair share of scary stories, because this sure feels like one. And if the stories about this place are true, he's in the one corner of the Shrieking Isle that nobody ever returns from - the place where the trees walk and the grass listens.

But he's here on a mission. When town got wind about a missing girl, Timid was the first to scrounge up a search party. There's just one slight hitch in his plan: he doesn't know what he's doing. As Timid ventures farther and farther away from everything he's ever known, he learns that every tree on the Isle hides its own legends. Just too bad that these ones turned out to be real.

And Timid's nightmare doesn't end there - he still has a price on his head worth a noose around his neck. But if he defeats the odds and finds who he's looking for, he just might save himself. Because Timid has come back from the dead and has a debt to pay - he just doesn't know it yet.

Battling a guilty past and what seems to be a curse on his name, Timid can no longer ignore the anchor on his ankle and the sword in his back. He might have to escape fate the only way he can find - by diving right in.

The Man Who the Sea Wouldn't Drown debuts a new fantasy series, The Ballad of Timid Stormwind, and chronicles a story told by the strange folk who inhabit the Shrieking Isle - an untamed slice of the world with a surplus of missing people, odd phenomena, and things that go bump in the night. Creeping through the Isle's veins, the art of oral storytelling is both symptom and cure for the moribund souls who shun society's lanterns. On one such journey, a reluctant adventurer - Timid Stormwind - learns the value of life, sacrifice, and even fear as he attempts to redeem himself and earn his way from a second chance to possibly a third.

About the Author

R.P. Ashe is a self-published fiction author, at-home bartender, and amateur chess player - among other things. R.P. wrote his debut series, The Ballad of Timid Stormwind, as a love letter to the art of oral storytelling when - after being just a listener for long enough - he finally found the courage to step up to the plate. He spends most of his day as a young professional in the bustling metropolises of upstate New York, and in his spare time you can find him unsuccessfully fly fishing far from the city lights.
