Summary
Set in the awe-inspiring world of the
Malazan Empire, here are three tales of the enigmatic and
eccentric necromancers Bauchelain and Korbal Broach collected
in one volume. BLOOD FOLLOWS -- In the port city of Lamentable
Moll, a diabolical killer stalks the streets and panic grips
the citizens like a fever. As Emancipor Reese's legendary ill
luck would have it, his previous employer is the unknown
killer's latest victim. But two strangers have come to town,
and they have posted in Fishmonger's Round a note, reeking of
death-warded magic, requesting the services of a manservant.
THE LEES OF LAUGHTER'S END -- After their blissful sojourn in
Lamentable Moll, the sorcerers Bauchelain and Korbal Broach --
along with their manservant, Emancipor Reese -- set out on the
open seas aboard the sturdy ship Suncurl. Alas, there's more
baggage in the hold than meets the beady eyes of the crew, and
unseemly terrors awaken. For Bauchelain and Korbal Broach, and
Emancipor Reese, it is just one more night on the high seas, on
a journey without end. THE HEALTHY DEAD -- The city of Quaint's
zeal for goodness can be catastrophic, and no one knows this
better than Bauchelain and Korbal Broach, two stalwart
champions of all things bad. The homicidal necromancers -- and
their substance-addled manservant, Emancipor Reese -- find
themselves ensnared in a scheme to bring goodness into utter
ruination. Sometimes you must bring down civilization... in the
name of civilization. From the Trade Paperback edition.
