Saint Death's Herald cover

Much-anticipated follow-up to the whimsical, joyous, zombie-packed World Fantasy Award-winning Saint Death's Daughter

Lanie Stones lives to love and serve Saint Death. And damn it duodecifold, Saint Death needs her—first and foremost for her ability to lay the unrestful dead to rest. Unfortunately for Lanie, the most restless of these “unrestful dead" happens to be her own great-grandfather, the powerful necromancer Irradiant Stones...Lanie Stones is the necromancer that Death has been praying for.

Heartbroken, exiled from her homeland as a traitor, Lanie Stones would rather take refuge in good books and delicate pastries than hunt a deathless abomination, but that is the duty she has chosen.

The abomination in question happens to be her own great-grandfather, the powerful necromancer Irradiant Stones. Grandpa Rad has escaped from his prison and stolen a body, and is heading to the icy country of Skakhmat where he died, to finish the genocide he started. Fortunately for her, Lanie has her powerful death magic, including the power to sing the restless dead to their eternal slumber; and she has her new family by her side.

Grandpa Rad may have finally met his match.
