The Forgotten Monk

This high fantasy and high adventure tale is woven into a story of strong friendships, deadly hatreds, ingenious criminal mysteries, and baffling affairs of the heart. Cipher is a man without a past. He is a monk: a master of the Deadly Arts who is able to dismantle enemies using his bare hands, he is immune to lies, and he can see volumes of information in the smallest detail. Unfortunately, that’s all he knows. His real name and his history have all been stolen by an unknown foe. Without memory or purpose, Cipher can only follow his instinct to find bad people and hit them until they stop doing bad things. Joining a crime-fighting cavalry unit in a remote corner of the Dragon Empire, he finds himself allied with a singing orc, an indecisive elf, and a flying carpet that doesn't like heights. Together they’ll take on a crazy halfling death cultist, a love-maddened alchemist, a charming drunkard dog-thief, a blinded arch-demon in chains, and the bizarre Mantischorgoth.
