Left alone and buried under crippling debt, nineteen-year-old Quillen sees no way out. Just as he is contemplating a dark final action, the debt collectors arrive. In a weird twist of fate, he meets the great Malthus Vance Balthazar, a strange but powerful multiversal merchant. Balthazar introduces Quillen to "the system," an organization designed to save other worlds by vending essential items to their heroes. Desperate for a lifeline, Quillen agrees to become Balthazar’s disciple, embarking on dangerous adventures across different worlds and situations to pay off his crushing debt. Will Quillen be able to escape from his debt as well as his tragic past and, in the process, help his mysterious new slave solve the problem keeping her from being truly free?
