Comedy and fantasy collide in this Dungeons & Dragons genre parody. This audiobook is a spin-off of the infamous Journal of an Outlaw series by Mick McArt.

An ordinary, money-grubbing Merchant struggling to make a coin off penniless, incompetent adventurers is forced to take on the impossible quest of saving his town and rescuing the woman he loves from a treacherous and powerful Wizard.

An artful, satire of dungeon crawls and cRPG's, the Merchant Adventurer is part Princess Bride, part Dungeon Pawn Stars and a rollicking good read.
