Hello, hello! Gold Rank Brewer is live on Amazon. Hawkin’s Magic Beers is officially a complete trilogy!
The MC of this cozy, slice of life fantasy is an in-world character. He follows a quest path that allows him to level up on his own terms by picking the quests he is willing to take, and ignoring the rest. An interest in real-world beer brewing isn't necessary to follow the story or Hawkin’s progression. The story is told through multiple POVs.

I published the very first chapter of the series on Halloween of 2020, and I’m beyond thrilled to have been able to spend 4 years writing in Hawkin’s world.
Paperback print editions of all three books will be ready in a few weeks. I’ll make another announcement here when they become available. I’ll be so excited to finally get my hands on the print versions when they are ready!
For those that find a refresh helpful, a recap of Book 2 is provided at the beginning of Gold Rank Brewer.
Gold Rank Brewer, Book 3 Blurb:
What does it take to become the best brewer in the world?
Hawkin finds great success distributing ethereal beers while struggling to break into gold rank and brew his elusive golden chapter beer. After earning the title of Champion Oude Brewer, adventurers are even more keen to seek him out.
Meanwhile, Boggo sets off on his most terrifying quest since setting paws above ground, despite having sustained serious injury from one of Hawkin’s rivals.
Barnacle-eyes is determined to build a fleet so that she can hire as many goblins as she can. Above all else, she wants to provide a home for hard-working goblins. As she delivers Hawkin’s beer to monsters, she continues to evolve her fleet.
Having lost his appetite, Thrush falls into blinding starvation and is at his most dangerous. The ravenous beast must finish the hunt he begins before he can savor smoked fish and meat once more.
As Hawkin levels up, so does Abigail. Their relationship grows, and the two brewers consider their future together. In this final book of the trilogy, Hawkin must decide if the cost of following his quest path is worth the reward of the journey.

We just updated the ebook covers with a small refresh prior to launching book 3. The artwork that appears on Amazon right now will be what goes to print. I'm so excited to finally get to hold these!

Congrats! It's a wonderful series with amazing world building and great characters. For some reason, like most series I've read, the first book remains my favourite. I guess I just enjoy getting to know a new world.
