About this ebook

To catch a killer, send a monster.

There's a realm. Wreathed in ice and snow, drowning in the dark, Assevan needs a different kind of hero.

There's a god. Merciless and cold, and quick to anger, the Lord of the Dead insists upon one thing only: vengeance for a murdered soul.

And there's a man. A ruthless killer, Konrad is detective, judge and executioner in one. Dauntless, relentless, monstrous, he stands alone against the dark.

Meet the Malykant. Justice will be served.

Four cases. Four killers. Four executions. Dark fantasy and murder mystery collide in this first collection of the Malykant Mysteries.

Excellent pacing, incredible characterization and a compelling world that is slowly, precisely revealed as the reader breezes through the pages depicting Mr. Konrad Savast (and Ms. Irinanda Falenia's) efforts to unravel the mysteries behind both murders & untimely deaths, and bring true justice to both victims and perpetrators. Great read set in a Fantasy world that's not overdone, feels natural and very familiar. Efficient, beautiful prose make it a pleasure to read, and the masterful use of powerful imagery, make the reader connect with the varied cast of characters in the first three tales of The Malykant. Well worth the time spent reading it. Highly recommended.
