When the Magister of the Hue and Cry recruits him to solve a little problem that he has with vampires, it seems pretty obvious that he is going to get it sorted. The only question that there should be is how long he will take to do it and how long would it take Florencetown to get back to normal. That is how the thing should have gone but it did not. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePerhaps it was the fault of the dwarf's irascible temper or his infatuation with a beautiful former witch who has been drawn into the vampires' scheme. It could be the interference of the Magister's tame and invariably hungry werewolves who are opportunistic feeders, perpetually looking out for a free lunch. Maybe it is the simple fact that the Magister has his own issues in the form of a beautiful woman with a penchant for stilettos, leather and a whip who seems to appear whenever he rings a curious little bell that sits unobtrusively on his desk. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOf course, the fact that no one actually understands exactly what a vampire's death pledge is doesn't really help. Although we might refer to them as mortgages, no human ever takes more than one death pledge in the world of Seagrum the Dwarf: it just isn't possible given that humans only have one life (and death). Vampires, naturally enough and despite the many edicts of the Hue and Cry, simply don't tell: preferring to keep their dealings shrouded in mystery. Then there is the matter of payment. Seagrum is extortionately expensive: more than the Hue and Cry can afford in fact. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThat is where Jonas the Strangler comes in.\u003cp\u003eThis book has the potential to appeal strongly to readers of: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoe Abercrombie (\u003ci\u003eThe First Law\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlen Cook (\u003ci\u003eThe Black Company\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTerry Pratchett's darker Discworld corners\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eScott Lynch (\u003ci\u003eGentleman Bastards\u003c\/i\u003e), but dirtier\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeil Gaiman's \u003ci\u003eNeverwhere.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 194\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.41 x 7.81 x 5.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 26, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47993663226007,"sku":"9781798083413","price":19.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/4552\/4631\/files\/5geNtSz23L9781798083413.webp?v=1783522588","url":"https:\/\/leyambercollective.com\/products\/seagrum-the-dwarf-paperback","provider":"Ley Amber Collective","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
