Three declined calls later, I limped out the door to get myself to the ER before starting my hectic day.

Shunned by most species and abandoned by their warlock fathers, necromancers are marginalized, feared, and reclusive. Erasmus Boone is different. His warlock father chose love instead of abandonment.
