Saint Death's Herald (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781837864492)

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

Miscellaneous "Lanie" Stones is the necromancer that Do?denna, god of Death, has been praying for.

True, she's always been more interested in books and pastries than in creating abominations and raising armies of the undead. But still--she lives to love and serve Saint Death. And damn it duodecifold, Saint Death needs her! Lanie has many talents--her powers of death magic are growing more complex and stranger every day--but first and foremost is her ability to lay the unrestful dead to their unending slumber.

Unfortunately for Lanie, the most restless of these "unrestful dead" happens to be her own great-grandfather, the powerful necromancer Irradiant Stones. After having escaped from his temporary prison, he is possessing people from all over the realms, sucking them dry of their magic and discarding their bodies when there's nothing left to take, growing stronger and stronger all the time. His ultimate goal? To return to the icy country of Skakmaht, where he died, and finish conquering the North for his own. First the North--then the world! After Irradiant takes care of his pesky great-granddaughter Lanie, that is: the only person on Athe who can stop him.
