heretical fishing 2: a cozy guide to annoying the cults, outsmarting the fish, and alienating oneself

Power is returning to the world after millennia, ancient constructs are stirring back to life, and one man is doing his best to ignore all that noise.

Fischer has everything he could possibly want in life: a menagerie of cute animal companions, a waterfront property from which to fish, friendships that blossom more and more by the day, and enough coffee to take out a small elephant--or a really large dog.

If it were up to him, he’d spend the rest of his life laying in the shade with Maria at his side, a rod in one hand and a fresh pastry in the other. Unfortunately for Fischer, cosmic forces still don’t care about mortal feelings.

The capital is growing wise to his movements. The cults are still culting. The merchant that provides coffee beans is nowhere to be seen. And awakened beings are popping up like barnacles on the rocky shore. Even his friends have gone behind his back and started a church with the express goal of turning him into a god.

It’s a lot for one man to take on. But thankfully, Fischer isn’t alone. Between his trusty guard crab, an otter that can summon lightning like Zeus, and a bunny that seems a little too fond of roundhouse kicks, he’ll be just fine . . . right?
