The Guild of the Cowry Catchers - The Pirates of Wefrivain Saga

Gerard lost his birthright in his small island kingdom when he married the court minstrel. He fled to the only place that offered protection from his father and his vengeful local deity—the service of the High Priestess. Unfortunately, his superior officer, Silveo, takes an instant disliking to Gerard. Silveo has a reputation for cruelty, cunning, and a biting wit. Rumors claim that he was once an assassin, who clawed his way to power from a childhood of poverty and abuse. In spite of their differences, the Priestess insists that Gerard and Silveo cooperate to destroy the charismatic pirate, Gwain, and his mysterious organization, the Guild of the Cowry Catchers. Gwain has been killing off the Temple Police for years, and he seems likely to make a swift end of Gerard...if Silveo doesn’t do it first. The Guild of the Cowry Catchers Podcast is a full-cast production that originally aired between 2010 and 2014. It has not been available in a public feed since around 2017. The author added more books and wrapped up the series in 2020 as The Pirates of Wefrivain Saga. Now the original podcast is back with new commentary from the author more than a decade later. The lead voice actors include Nathan Lowell of the Solar Clipper novels, Norm Sherman of the Drabblecast, Christen Lester of Metamor City, and many more.

Visit https://www.patreon.com/abigailhilton to view the original illustrations for each episode, painted by Sarah Cloutier. Maps and species charts are also available. Patrons get new episodes one week early, along with artwork, Discord access, and additional updates from the author. The Pirates of Wefrivain is a complete saga with a satisfying conclusion. You can mainline it in audiobook, ebook, or signed paperback from my store at shop.abigailhilton.com. For unsigned paperbacks, I still recommend Amazon as the cheapest and fastest option. Abigail Hilton's other series include the Hunters Unlucky Universe, The Prophet of Panamindorah, Eve and Malachi, The Knight and the Necromancer (under A. H. Lee), and the Incubus series (also under A. H. Lee). If you're curious, The Knight and the Necromancer is the most popular. ;)
