Synopsis

Meet Easie Damasco: thief, liar…and lately, reluctant heroBut whatever good intentions Damasco may have are about to be tested to their limits, as the most valuable—and dangerous—object in the land comes within his light-fingered grasp.Add in some suicidally stubborn giants, an old enemy with dreams of empire, and the deadliest killer in two kingdoms on his heels, and Easie’s chances of staying honest—or even just surviving—are getting slimmer by the hour.“Damasco resembles a landlocked version of Jack Sparrow… The atypical backdrop, self-aware style and downplaying of magics bring to mind the contemporary fantasies of Scott Lynch and Joe Abercrombie.” —SFX Magazine

He is, however, a great sidekick to the Castoval's heroes, Alvantes, Estrada, and Saltlick the giant. The trouble is, Easie Damasco wants the reader to believe th......more

A fantasy and a comedy, two in one. Very easy to read, it's like watching a TV show: lets you brain rest, but still entertaining......more
