Magiere has cultivated a reputation as the most formidable vampire slayer in the land. Villagers everywhere welcome her with both awe and dismay, grateful to her for removing the undead menace, but finding themselves poorer for their salvation. Magiere has never had a problem with exploiting superstition for profit. Now, tired of this game, Magiere and her half-elf partner are ready to retire. But Magiere has attracted the attention of vampires who recognize her true identity - even if she does not - and who fear her birthright and latent power. They will do anything to stop Magiere from realising her true potential.
'The Butlerian Jihad mix LOTR and BUFFY... with a healthy dose of THE STING for engaging adventure that is both humorous and exciting.' KEVIN J. ANDERSON, author of Hidden Empire and Dune '...complex heroes, refreshingly multi-faceted villains, and carefully choreographed fight scenes... opened a broad new world.' - MINDY L. KLASKY, author of The Glasswright's Apprentice
