Candle & Crow

'A NEW, ACTION-PACKED, ENCHANTINGLY FUN SERIES' Booklist on Ink & Sigil

From New York Times bestselling author Kevin Hearne comes the final book in his hugely entertaining Ink & Sigil series, as an ink-slinging wizard pursues the answer to a very personal mystery . . .

Al MacBharrais is a practitioner of ink-and-sigil magic, tasked with keeping order among the gods and monsters that dwell in the human world. But there's one supernatural mystery he's never been able to solve: years ago, someone cast twin curses on him that killed his apprentices and left him bereft and isolated.

But he's not quite alone. As Al works to solve this mystery, his friends - Buck Foi the hobgoblin, Nadia the goth queen and battle seer, and the former Irish death goddess known as the Morrigan - draw him into their own eccentric dramas and shenanigans. However, Al's being pulled in so many different directions by his colleagues, a suspicious detective, and the whims of destructive gods that he begins to wonder: will he ever find time to write his own happy ending?
