"A brilliant premise, wonderfully told. A city that breathes, and heroes you can't help but root for." — Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the WyldA watchman of the Yenara City guard has gone missing. The culprit could be any of the usual suspects: drug-dealing orcs, mind-controlling elves, uncooperative mages, or humans being typical humans. It's up to two reluctant partners-Rem, a hungover miscreant who joins the Watch to pay off his bail, and Torval, a maul-wielding dwarf who's highly unimpressed with the untrained and weaponless Rem-to uncover the truth and catch the murderer loose in their fair city."A glorious tour through fantasy's seamier side. A wilder ride than Middle Earth, and you'll love every minute of it!" — Jon Hollins, author of the Dragon Lords series Views: 53
