“An unfortunate potato hockey accident brings Sam to the attention of a scary stranger and Sam is attacked after work. From there, it’s quickly on to necromancy, werewolves, witches, kidnapping and multiple dead bodies, some that stay dead, some that do not. Sam is given (not much of) a choice. He can join the evil, scary necromancer—or die. He can free the cute werewolf who has been captured by the evil, scary necromancer—or die. With no help, no idea how to tap into his power and only one week until the deadline, Sam has a lot to do.” —Bruce DeLaney, Rediscovered Books, Boise
