Do better. That's a hell of a thing to demand of yourself. Marla
Mason has been a mercenary, chief sorcerer and protector of an
entire city, and an occult detective, and now she's a goddess of
Death... but only part-time. She gets to spend six months a year
living as a mortal woman on Earth, and she's decided to devote
those months to hunting monsters for fun and personal redemption.
Armed with axe and dagger, with the living severed head of her
worst enemy in a birdcage for a traveling companion, she sets off
by motorcycle into the American Southwest on a journey of
self-discovery and other-destruction. Time to ride.
Marla Mason, ousted chief sorcerer for the city of Felport, is
languishing in exile on the island of Maui with her best friend,
the psychic (and rather hedonistic) Rondeau. Driven from the city
she loves, Marla is adrift, nearly friendless, and stripped of
almost all her power and resources. It's the perfect time for old
enemies to try and kill her. A group of sorcerers, all with their
own reasons to want Marla dead, assemble and prepare to attack her
while she's at her most vulnerable. The members of this Marla Mason
Revenge Squad include the one-armed witch Nicolette, the cheerfully
murderous psychopath Crapsey, a criminally insane shapeshifter, a
man who hunts werewolves for fun, and a master of anti-magic, among
others. But they aren't taking chances with an enemy as formidable
as Marla. They hire the world's most notorious--and deadly--chaos
witch, Elsie Jarrow, to lead their assault. But Elsie is impossible
to predict and may well have an agenda of her own. But Marla isn't
as helpless as they think...
The adventures of Marla Mason, chief sorcerer and protector of the
city of Felport, have been chronicled in novels including "Blood
Engines," "Poison Sleep," "Dead Reign," "Spell Games," "Broken
Mirrors," and "Grim Tides." Now, for the first time, her origins
are revealed. Bone Shop chronicles Marla's early days in the city,
her rise to power, and the terrible tragedies that shaped her
extraordinary life. This is a story of questions answered and
shadows forecast. This is the story of Marla Mason.
A Marla Mason novel She's an ass-kicking sorcerer who doesn't wear
a leather catsuit, doesn't suffer from low self-esteem, doesn't
wallow in angst, and is almost always absolutely certain she's
right...even when she's dead wrong. What about Broken Mirrors? It's
got monsters. It's got sarcasm. It's got death, betrayal, ancient
gods, dark doppelgangers, mirror worlds, wisecracks, artifacts,
oracles, and magical daggers. Oh...and a cloak.
