I'm Sam Quinn, a newlywed, book lover and werewolf, owner of the Killed Sheep bookstore and bar. Clive and I are on our honeymoon in Paris. The city is beautiful, but the mummy in the Louvre, who decided to approach me, is a little repulsive. And although Clive doesn't feel anything, I can't shake the feeling that I'm being watched. Even after we cross the English Channel to begin the search for Aldith - the woman who has been plotting against Clive all along - there's a tingling uneasiness. doesn't want to leave me. Clive and I are separated, quite violently, and I am left alone to find my way in a foreign land, avoiding not only a large network of Aldith vampire minions, but also evil fairies disloyal to their queen. Gloriana once told me that there was a poison in the human realm that was seeping into Fairyland, and I may have discovered its source. I knew it would be a working holiday, but fighting vampires on one front and fairies on the other is... too much, especially in a country saturated with magic. On a side note, I need to contact Benweir. I think I've found the dragon she's looking for. Gloriana is threatening to unleash her warriors on the human kingdom, but perhaps I have a way to calm her down. Aldit is a completely different story. You can't argue with rabid revenge. Our suffering at her hands must end forever if Clive and I hope to have a long, happy life together. Damn it, I already agree to a few quiet weeks.
