A man awakens in a mysterious clearing, disoriented and alone. He finds himself in what appears to be medieval England, with no recollection of his identity, origins, or purpose. Struggling with his fragmented memory, he soon discovers that he is being pursued by individuals from his own time. His enigmatic past is his greatest enemy, and unravelling it becomes his sole hope of survival. In this perilous journey, ancient dangers and the complexities of medieval society test his resolve.

Adding to his plight, he was supposed to have the aid of a life-saving guidebook—the The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England. However, fate deals him yet another blow when the book explodes during transit, leaving him with only scattered fragments. These remnants now serve as his only lifeline. Can he piece together the clues and navigate the treacherous world of medieval England in time to save himself?

Brandon Sanderson, acclaimed for his imaginative storytelling and intricate world-building, delivers a thrilling narrative filled with mystery, intrigue, and the timeless struggle for identity and survival. The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England is an epic tale that will captivate readers with its blend of historical intrigue and speculative fiction.
