About this ebook

The fantasy world came to us.

America struggles to adjust to new populations: elves, orcs, dwarves… Worst of all, the Goblin Invasion in the Mojave Desert.

Vic Shatterspear makes his way in this new world as best he can. An orc with a whole lot of attitude. An ex-con with his own business. He hauls goblin hides to Sacramento for the bounties. He picks up the odd hitchhiker to break the monotony.

Today Vic picks up an elf, and a whole lot of trouble.

"The Hitchhiking Countess," a rollicking fantasy short story full of attitude and adventure. The first Vic the Orc story. From Stefon Mears, author of the Cavan Oltblood series and the Spells for Hire series.

    Goodbye and good riddance.

    Gotta be honest here. Nine times out of ten. No. Nineteen times out of twenty I can pick up a hitchhiker and it’s a good experience. I get someone to talk to, they get a bunch of miles closer to wherever it is they’re going. Good all around.

    Yeah, I know. They like to say picking up hitchhikers is as dangerous as, well, as hitchhiking. Could be some crazy with a knife ready to open a vein or whatever.

    Maybe that happens. But it doesn’t happen to me.

    Name’s Vic, and I’m built kind of like my Ford truck. Big, green, and bad, with just enough dings and scratches to warn you not to mess with me.

    Got a tire thumper under the seat. Just in case.

    Never needed it once. Not for a hitchhiker, anyway.

    So that night, that was one of the times it didn’t go so well. I was making the long haul up I5 through nowhere California, my truck bed full of…

    Look. You’re going to judge me for this. You know it. I know it. But there aren’t that many things an ex-con like me can do, even if…

    Yeah, I know. You don’t want the excuses.

    I was hauling goblin hides, all right? From the battle lines down around Bakersfield, where they’ve been incurring through the Mojave and causing all sorts of trouble.

    Anyway, the goblin hides were all sealed in the truck bed, so tight even
