Every hero deserves a safe place to fall apart.
Tanwin never wanted to be an Adventurer. After surviving a disastrous campaign that left her scarred in ways no potion could heal, she abandons Lanriel’s glory-seeking Adventurers' Guild and opens an apothecary instead.
Soon Tanwin spends her days helping battle-scarred heroes confront the emotional wounds no one else will treat, one steaming cup of tea at a time. Until Lanriel’s most fearsome warrior arrives begging for help.
Fang-Ripper’s son is missing. A dragon is involved. And somehow Tanwin finds herself trekking into the dangerous Wilds with a handful of unlikely companions, a curious moondrill in her pocket, and absolutely no desire to become part of anyone's heroic quest.
But as ancient grudges resurface and war threatens to ignite between dragons and humans, Tanwin discovers that monsters are rarely who the stories claim they are.
And when the elf who has captured Tanwin’s heart is called back into peril, the peaceful life she has built begins to unravel.
A Healer’s Guide to Adventuring is a sapphic cosy fantasy with romance.
with David Green “ I grew up in the north west of England and in Galway, Ireland. The fact I didn't feel quite fixed in one specific place definitely comes through in my writing. A lot of my characters are outsiders searching for their place in the world and hoping to find their tribe. ”
