Synopsis: "I'd been ridiculed, rejected, robbed, and almost dismembered, and I'd only been in Liera a week. Mercenary Kyrra d'Aliente's homecoming is not as triumphant as she hoped. Her family is dead, her pockets empty, the man she loves missing, and a bunch of out-of-work sellswords want to steal her metal arm. So, when an encounter with an old friend leads to a smuggling job, she's more than willing to hop on board in exchange for a bag of coins and a little revenge. But will this mysterious cargo be worth the firestorm it ignites? Smuggler's Fortune is a standalone novella that takes place just before Fortune's Fool, the first novel in the Eterean Empire series and runner-up in Mark Lawrence's 2019 Self-Published Fantasy Blog Off (SPFBO5)."
