Sir Apropos of Nothing Books in Order

Apropos arrives at King Runcible's court hoping to identify his father, avenge his mother's suffering and make money. His preference for self-interest runs against a possible heroic destiny, drawing the reluctant rogue into a world of knights and prophecy.

Apropos is drawn into trouble over a magical gem and awakens as Wuin, a feared ruler commanding an army. Discovering the price of his new identity forces him to reconsider apparent success and find a way through its consequences.

After a wizard's game of chance turns dangerous, Apropos finds himself adrift and eventually reaches Chinpan. Its unfamiliar language and code of honor bewilder the self-serving adventurer, whose survival depends on navigating a culture that challenges his usual tricks.

In Rogypt, Sir Apropos encounters an enslaved people forced to build pyramids and interferes with their promised deliverer. A god then pushes him toward liberation, entangling the reluctant adventurer with royal intrigue and a mummy's curse.
