Publisher's summary

A magic potion may spoil; its intended effects lost to time. The power of a potion, however, never fades. It contorts, deforms, and mutates, often leading to something monstrous. Thus tragedy befalls Zellin Percour, a young woman tricked into drinking an expired love potion. Now, transformed into an abomination, she’s rampaging her way toward the town of Sleeping Bear, hellbent on finding the man who deceived her.

Horace is enjoying his quiet life. He loves his wife, his children, and his shop in Sleeping Bear. He’s grateful that his violent past is buried deeper than the bodies left in his wake. But when a fool leads disaster to his door, he must revive his lethal talents or risk losing everything.

Griever wields a weapon of untold power. She’s also only two feet tall. This makes her both the deadliest and most easily overlooked bounty hunter in the world. She’s caught the scent of her hero, legendary pirate Lorenzo Blade, and is eager to discover if the man lives up to his myth. Her trail leads her to Sleeping Bear, where she’s about to discover all manner of hell lying beneath the surface.

A fresh take on simple concepts

I was a big fan of this book. The dark, macabre humor fit nicely into a story that, had it taken itself more seriously, would have easily fit into the grim dark sub-genre. The author does an excellent job of jumping perspectives and time frames to reveal story aspects in pieces instead of just going chronologically from A to B. It made for nice “Aha” moments that you normally wouldn’t get in a book this short. Not only that, but I absolutely must have more ferrelf in my life. The race and culture is ridiculously cute and fun, plus Blenman does a top notch job really nailing down the stunted attention span that an sentient ferret would have.

I have plenty of specific parts and quips that I love in this work, but don’t want to bring to avoid spoilers. But you want a quick, fun fantasy story that gives you a few new spins on fantasy, I highly recommend this book.

Outstanding!

I couldn’t turn it off. The story gripped my imagination and I listened to it in all of two sittings. A must listen!
