Discourse in Steel, Paperback by Kemp, Paul S., ISBN 1101964960, ISBN-13 9781101964965, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US<p><b>For fans of Brent Weeks, Joe Abercrombie, Peter V. Brett, and Scott Lynch comes a fast-paced, hilarious new sword-and-sorcery series featuring two wise-cracking protagonists straight out of the golden age of epic fantasy.</b></p><p>Once the most daring&mdash;some would say reckless&mdash;grave robbers around, Egil and Nix are now retired, having opened their own tavern with a side business as a brothel. The warrior-priest and the dashing rogue are done with adventuring. But is adventuring done with them? When two beautiful sisters run afoul of the notorious Thieves&rsquo; Guild, the semi-respectable entrepreneurs are called upon to defend their honor. And if they find an opportunity to enrich themselves along the way, no one could blame them.</p><p>Soon they&rsquo;re going toe-to-toe and hammer-to-skull with some of the deadliest cutthroats in town. There&rsquo;s just one catch: The quest to settle this vendetta once and for all leads straight into the Blackalley, a ghostly byway that appears at random to suck unsuspecting passersby into its voracious maw. Only a fool or a madman would enter willingly. Luckily for Egil and Nix, they might just be both.</p><p><b>Praise for the Egil and Nix novels</b></p><p>&ldquo;[Paul S.] Kemp delivers sword and sorcery at its rollicking best, after the fashion of Fritz Leiber&rsquo;s Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser.&rdquo;<b>&mdash;<i>Library Journal</i></b></p><p>&ldquo;Egil and Nix might not be the safest guys to go adventuring with, but they&rsquo;re sure good company.&rdquo;<b>&mdash;Ed Greenwood, bestselling creator of Forgotten Realms</b></p><p>&ldquo;Did I mention how much fun Egil and Nix are? So. Much. Damn. Fun.&rdquo;<b>&mdash;<i>Tordotcom</i></b></p>
