“The Pax Arcana books are seriously good reads. Action, humor, and heart with unexpected twists and turns.” —Patricia Briggs, #1 New York Times–bestselling author
John Charming. Ex knight. Current monster hunter. Now starring in a short story from contemporary fantasy author, Elliott James, within his Pax Arcana world.
John’s past is complicated enough, so he tries to keep life simple: Find monster. Kill monster. But when he wanders into Vista Verde, a small town with a big secret, he soon discovers that the simple answer is a load of bull.
Praise for Elliott James and his Pax Arcana series
“[A] gritty, believable world . . . This is masculine urban fantasy in the vein of Jim Butcher and Mark del Franco.” —Booklist
“A brilliant new voice in urban fantasy. Elliott James tells stories that are action-packed, often amusing, and always entertaining.” —Kevin Hearne, New York Times–bestselling author
“A self-deprecating, wisecracking, and honorable-to-a-fault hero who can stand up to such established protagonists as Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden and Seanen McGuire’s October Daye. Combining action and romance—with an emphasis on action—this is a top-notch new series opener for lovers of urban fantasy.” —Library Journal (starred review)
