THE FAILURES
Evoking the irreverence of Deadpool, and incorporating elements of Dr. Who and traditional fantasy, weird and wonderful THE FAILURES is the debut of a brilliant new voice in fantasy fiction.
The first of three books sold to DAW, a subsidiary of Astra, this interconnected, complex story follows a rich ensemble of characters, led by Sophie Vesachai, once child-hero and current cynical and disillusioned leader of a gang of runabout degenerates, ironically and affectionately called The Killers. Now, Sophie once again finds herself embroiled in a struggle for the very fate of the world.
But unfortunately for the fate of the world, Sophie turned her back on that kind of bullshit years ago. She and a small group of ragtag and failed heroes, from scattered placesand timesall across the Wanderlands will follow the summons of a strange dream and find
each other in one of the last places in this doomed world to hold any light: the underground Keep, where a buried giant has awakened and threatens to destroy their entire civilization.
Benjamin Liar is a writer, musician, filmmaker and game designer. He has been writing for most of his life, but THE FAILURES will be his first published novel. He has performed his music under many names and in many places, has won several local awards for short filmmaking, and recently published a virtual reality game. His name is clearly a pseudonym, but you still shouldn't trust anything he says. You can find him on most of the things @benjaminliar.
