The Dungeoneers: The Lost Temple of Ssis'sythyss, Paperback

Cursed gems, snake gods, lost temples, dark jungles and volcanoes. It could serve as a laundry list of things Ruby wanted nothing to do with. Yet now she's on her way, in search of a missing friend and with only a journal of cryptic clues and a notorious band of dungeoneering dwarves to guide her.

Jeffery Russell has been a massage therapist, an English teacher in Korea, a bouncer for a sports stadium, a cook, an editor and a brewmaster. Writing seemed a logical step. He lives in the Pacific-Northwest and spends more time thinking about dwarves than most people would find necessary.
