Jasper Toledo is a college student who died and was reincarnated into his favorite video game. Calloway Calphius is an elf hero turned deity after he dissappeared from the City of Perils for 250 years. After 250 years an upstart guildmaster named Cal is instrumental in turning the City of Perils into the new Kingdom of Calphian.  All three of these are the same man.

Shayley O'heira Van Dravenkin is the warrior princess of the City of Perils.  She developed the guild fortress known as the City of Perils into the Utopian City-state, known simply as the Pearly City, while waiting 250 for the return of her Fiance Calloway Calphius. With the aid of the Guildmaster Cal, she was able to reunite with the man she loved and grow the Pearly City into the Kingdom of Calphian. 

Ophelia is the cursed child of the Pearly City. She was orphaned and lost all hope for the future since she can only foresee bad things. A curious elf named Cal saved her from the streets and from herself. After her adoption she discovers that she is not cursed, she is an Oracle and becomes the mascot of the her Papa's new establishment an Adventurer's guild... and its attached maid cafe. 

Seamus is an Assassin turned Cabin boy and becomes apprenticed to Guildmaster Cal. But can the stiff teenager withstand the onslaught of teasing from his new master long enough to become a decent... whatever his master is training him to be?

Join our cast in the the second installment of the Pearly Tales saga as they prepare for war, fight shadows, deal with relationships, beat the crap out of doors, and shape the new world with the power of friendship... 

...okay I lied it's through piracy...
...and hijinks... 
...and pirate hijinks. 

Good luck, and let me be the first to Welcome you into Calphian the Kingdom of Perils.

Just as a note, this is the second volume in the Pearly Tales series. You can just pick this up and have a good time, but you'll miss a lot if you skip the first volume.

After being reincarnated in his favorite game Jasper Toledo, otherwise known as Calloway Calphius, finds himself in the city he created 250 years after he logged out for the last time. He disguises himself in the elf city to find out that he has been revered as a saint, and has begun a new age of the elves. In order to find his place in this new yet familiar world he starts a guild in an age when they've become obsolete. He finds out the elven princess is his fiancé and has been waiting for his return. He adopts an oracle girl known as the cursed child. He even accidently starts a successful maid café. But when a prophecy threatens his new way of life, he'll start a war with a dark shadow that's taken hold of his new home. Follow Cal's journey as he routinely breaks down ordinary doors, makes an inordinate amount of tea, falls in love with a princess, tumbles out of trees, and faces enemies both inside and outside the Pearly City. With all this and more awaiting our unscrupulous adventurer, let me be the first to welcome you to the City of Perils. Mature warning, a city this perilous includes: Adult language, use of gamer terminology, suggestive themes, crying, blushing, tears, feelings, anime special effects, eye-patches, sinister plots, wanton cultural references, identity crisis, a flippant God, shipping, ships, tragedy, aggressive girlfriends, and pirate hijinks lots and lots of hijinks .

[Highest ranking #85] "Your family killed my mother for no reason plus I'm a pathetic weak girl, so don't expect us to be friends even if we have to be married" Jezebel said I looked at her blankly this is my fault I pushed her away I said all those things I acted cold towards her. She looked at me and you could see the slightest speck of emotion and its was sadness. I shook my head and looked at her. She rolled her eyes and started to walk out but I stopped her. "Oh Ella.. We will be more than friends and there is noting you can do about it" I said and grabbed her arm and threw her on my bed and smirked down at her innocent face. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Aiden Casin is a bad boy. Parents are the ruthless Carter Casin and carefree Isabella Casin. He sleeps around with all kinds of girls, speaks his mind, bully's on people, never listens, gets bad grades, and he's always breaking the rules.... Not believable? Yea, I'm not buying it either.. Aiden is actually a good kid people just give him all these labels because of his dad, that are mostly not true.... He does sleep around with girls and sometimes if it's necessary he will bully people to get a point through. But then something unexpected happened. He has to wed to his fathers rival gang for a treaty.... Jezebel Pari.... Hm. Doesn't that sound familiar? Wait you don't know her parents do you? Parents are Susan Pari and Dylan Pari. Jezebel is the exact opposite of her parents she is innocent and she is pure.... Yea, I'm not kidding this time. Even if her parents are or were totally freaks, Jezebel is the kindest girl you'll ever met. She loves animals, nature, people and her main hobby is art. But what will happen when her father makes her marry Aiden for her to spy on them? Will love blossom? Or will they be the rivals they were destined to be? Once enemies, always enemies.

Sometimes shit happens. Hey, it's not always your day, it's alright. One moment you're riding high, soaring above these mud-riddled plains with the king of mercs by your side, another, you're running far away from the crater he blew himself up in. You've really outdone yourself this time. W's dead, there's angel blood on your fingers and something itches to grow out of your skull. To pierce those gray curls of yours and bask in the twin moon's soft gaze. Something brewing deep within, eager to dim that halo forever and shatter your wings. A piece of you that's always been there, always hiding and growling, waiting for its moment to shine. So, hit the lights, Andy. Give it some stage time. Let yourself live a little. Throw out that Lateran jacket, put on some leather. Grow a pair of horns, befriend a fiend. Forget Laterano, forget Lungmen. Kazdel is your new home. And your new home's where you rightfully belong, you little rascal. Hellooooo people !! Here we are, a SPIN-OFF story of my "Curly Head" series, in which Andy actually went on that one job he previously ditched and got himself into quite a predicament. In this one, I'll turn the angst-meter down, I promise. W and Andy, happy times. :D This is, of course, perfectly fine as a standalone work, I think, but if you're new and wanna brush up on the lore then you can do just that! Series starts with "Goodbye Curly Head", rest is pretty straightforward. Summed up: thirteen year old boy from Laterano ships himself off to fight in the Kazdel Civil War for peacekeeping reasons, situation turns to shit at the end of his tour, forced to stay in Kazdel and make money as a merc, meets up the first W's crew at the age of sixteen, circus-slapstick follows. Ps: I'm not giving up on "Almost Green", only taking a small break and also delivering some much needed fluff-ish stuff. Tell me you thoughts in the comments, I tend to reply to every single one of them and love reading through them all! Have fun!

************************************************************************************** An outcast rogue must break a curse put on his fate, or die on his nineteenth birthday. To survive, he'll need the sword of a maiden, the aid of an immortal, and the power of forbidden magic that could cost him the only girl he ever loved. ************************************************************************************ *** THE JACK OF SOULS won a Silver IPPY this year! *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the PNWA Competition in Fantasy! * *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the Southwest Writers competition! * *** A "Featured Book" on Wattpad! * *** Now a "Staff Pick" on Kickstarter! * *** Available on Amazon in paper, hardback, and ebook ! * *** My contract with Kindle Select won't allow me to post more than 3 chapters here, but... *** Sign up for my newsletter on stephenmerlino.com for alerts when it's free on Amazon! * MY INSPIRATION I wrote this out of pure love of trickster rogues; I love the wit over brawn motif -- Odysseus over Achilles, Raven over Eagle -- so I like to play with it in my stories. In JOS I set the rogue and con-artist Harric against a foil of warriors in a land threatened by magic and civil war. Whenever possible I turn familiar tropes on their heads: instead of a handsome young Lancelot, I cast a broken-down ex-champion addicted to pain-killing herbs; instead of a dashing Squire Brian, the old knight reluctantly takes an ambitious young woman as squire. Similarly, I re-imagine the standard medieval milieu by infusing aspects of two of my favorite historical periods, Elizabethan England, and The American Frontier. Both eras boast a kind of nationalistic arrogance that borders on hubris, and a magnificent spirit of resourcefulness and re-invention that is fun to play with. SERIES The Jack of Souls is first in a series. I am posting parts of the sequel here now (The Knave of Souls), to help me refine the story.
