In "Two Serpents Rise "by Max Gladstone, shadow demons plague
the city reservoir, and Red King Consolidated has sent in Caleb
Altemoc--casual gambler and professional risk manager--to cleanse
the water for the sixteen million people of Dresediel Lex. At the
scene of the crime, Caleb finds an alluring and clever cliff
runner, Crazy Mal, who easily outpaces him.
But Caleb has more than the demon infestation, Mal, or job
security to worry about when he discovers that his father--the last
priest of the old gods and leader of the True Quechal
terrorists--has broken into his home and is wanted in connection to
the attacks on the water supply.
From the beginning, Caleb and Mal are bound by lust, Craft, and
chance, as both play a dangerous game where gods and people are
pawns. They sleep on water, they dance in fire...and all the while
the Twin Serpents slumbering beneath the earth are stirring, and
they are hungry.
