Lish McBride's world of inventive dark magic and fantastic beings is not to be missed. By anyone. I'm telling you people, there are were-hares, a girl who flicks fire from her fingertips, and a were-fox with bouncy black feet (and an even cuter human body). If you want more than that, you want too much. Lish rocks.- Kendare Blake, author of Anna Dressed in Blood and Antigoddess "FIREBUG has it all-power-hungry villains, cool magic powers, foxy boys, and even vicious were-bunnies, all fueled by Lish McBride's signature non-stop wit. I love every moment spent in this oft-quirky, always spellbinding world, and can't wait to see what trouble Ava, Lock, and Ezra land themselves in next!"- Marissa Meyer, New York Times bestselling author of The Lunar Chronicles
Lish McBride's urban fantasy debut Hold Me Closer, Necromancer garnered rave reviews from critics and fans for its hilarity and madcap action. In this brilliant sequel, neophyte necromancer Sam LaCroix is still getting used to being on the local magical council, not to mention having a werewolf girlfriend and a shapechanging feline butler. When his sister begins receiving threatening messages and a dead body surfaces, Sam wonders if his old nemesis Douglas is responsible. There's only one problem- Douglas is dead.
The riveting debut work from celebrated newcomer Lish McBride, Hold Me Closer, Necromancer drops a seemingly average boy into the adventure of a lifetime. Sam can't complain about much, even if his job isn't the most glamorous one around. But his world gets a whole lot more complicated when he crosses paths with Douglas, a necromancer who gets paid to raise the dead. Douglas thinks Sam might have the right touch for necromancing, and when this turns out to be all too true, Sam faces unimaginable dangers.
