Thicker Than Water

The walls are bleeding ghosts and the air's gone sharp as knives. Captured and strung up inside enemy territory with a magical war machine powered by pain about to explode in the basement; not great! Yet this is where the brave and rambunctious Sette and Duane, her loyal bodyguard (or "attack zombie" as Sette would have it), find themselves after a stunning betrayal put a dent in their quest to collect a debt for her father, the Lord of Thieves. As it turns out, a jailbreak will become the least of their concerns when the duo faces off against monsters from the spirit realm, a rampaging army, a vengeful mage, and a ferocious gang of Stormbringers as Duane's past literally comes back to haunt them, all while Sette grapples with the implication of recent events. Torn apart by the revelation that her entire mission was a lie, Sette needs to get mad and do it fast, or she and Duane are food for the dead. The richly illustrated, wildly imaginative fantasy quest series continues with more twists, more terror, and more turnabout in a deliciously dark new chapter!
