It’s 1618. Do you know where your historian is?

Retirement wasn’t supposed to have dragons....

Historian Jason Finn crossed the planet to escape the Black Dog of depression - and almost got there. Over the mountains of Korea, a monster out of nightmares tore his plane from the sky... and into another world.

Hunting down ravenous shapeshifting pirates, Night Magistrate Lee Cheong found survivors from elsewhere. Survivors who say pirates are not the only threat. Over twenty years ago Hanyang burned in dragon flames... and that monster still lives.

Now the young magistrate must lead demon-hunters on a desperate chase, aided by a bandit sharpshooter, a seafolk medic, a Heavenly cultivator on the run for her life... and a time-lost historian.

Jason’s willing to help, but he’s cursed, fighting to survive, and struggling to understand a land of magic and monsters. All the while doing his best to keep a teenage girl alive.

Upside? Jason’s definitely not depressed....
