Steven Brust

Tsalmoth is the next installment in Steven Brust's bestselling Vlad Taltos series--hold on to your hats and get ready for another swashbuckling adventure!

First comes love. Then comes marriage...

Vlad Taltos is in love. With a former assassin who may just be better than he is at the Game. Women like this don't come along every day and no way is he passing up a sure bet.

So a wedding is being planned. Along with a shady deal gone wrong and a dead man who owes Vlad money. Setting up the first and trying to deal with the second is bad enough. And then bigger powers decide that Vlad is the perfect patsy to shake the power structure of the kingdom.

More's the pity that his soul is sent walkabout to do it.

How might Vlad get his soul back and have any shot at a happy ending? Well, there's the tale...

Praise for this book

Praise for Tsalmoth:

"Vlad's narration is cocky and quick-witted as ever, and it's a joy to revisit his usual costars... Series fans won't want to miss this" --Publishers Weekly

"Brust's writing is even more assured here than it was when he too was a younger man. Tsalmoth is full of the same magic of Jhereg but with more depth and earned swagger." --Locus

"Tsalmoth is an easy introduction to Brust's Draegaran world for new readers and an exciting continuation for returning fans." --Booklist

Praise for Steven Brust and the Vlad Taltos series:

"Delightful, exciting, and sometimes brilliant."--Neil Gaiman

"An indubitable master of swashbuckling high fantasy."--Booklist on Five Hundred Years After

"One of those natural caper writers...A writer who can spin a yarn that keeps you guessing until the end." --Cory Doctorow

"With his arch humor and quasi-archaic narrative style, Brust pays homage to Dumas, Zola, and other masters of swashbuckling adventure."--Library Journal on The Paths of the Dead

"Steven Brust might just be America's best fantasy writer."--Tad Williams
