Can you trust a sorcerer who tries to kill you...

...but shoves you both into a strange world of magic, greed, and conflict instead?

Vester doesn't have a great deal of choice. Far from home, the only way he's going to stay alive is to bury the hatchet.

At least for a while.

But even with a sorcerer on his side, carving a niche for himself in the treacherous politics of the imperial city of Skarnelm isn't easy. Especially when he makes enemies who'll sink to the lowest depths of slyness and duplicity to stop him.

The only way to survive is to sink even lower. To do the unthinkable.

If you like Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, and Joe Abercrombie, you won't be able to put down the addictive Hollow series.
