Death's Collector: The Death-Cursed Wizard, cartea 1

Autor Bill McCurry Editat de Shayla Raquel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 feb 2019
A wizard compelled to kill. A slaughter he vowed to prevent. A murderer who pissed off the wrong guy... Bib the sorcerer hates how much he loves his job. Cursed by the God of Death to collect lives, he focuses his thirst on snuffing out only lowlife losers and contemptible ass-clowns. But when innocents under his protection are brutally murdered, Bib flips the switch on the ultimate revenge spree. Bent on obliterating the bum responsible, Bib is more than a little miffed when he discovers the shocking truth about his own degenerate nature. But knowing the type of killer he is inside, the reluctant hero won't be stopped until he mows down every evil dude in his path. Can Bib fight his way to redemption before he loses his soul to bloodlust? Death's Collector is the first book in the darkly humorous The Death-Cursed Wizard fantasy series. If you like snarky heroes, top-notch magic systems, and epic sword and sorcery, then you'll love Bill McCurry's addictive tale.

Notă biografică

Bill McCurry was born in Fort Worth, Texas and now lives thirty-five miles away in Dallas, Texas. That short distance produces more divergence than one might think. If both cities were apples, Dallas would be sliced and resting on a bed of arugula and kale with some nice vinaigrette, while Fort Worth would be sitting in a bin at the Farmer's Market behind a sign that reads, "These are good old apples. If you're looking for kale, Dallas is over there." In childhood Bill came to love fiction late, preferring history and science books instead. In his mid-teens he discovered science fiction and fantasy novels, particularly Roger Zelazny, Ursula Le Guin, Robert Heinlein, J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert E. Howard, Harry Harrison, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Richard Brautigan, Robert Saberhagen, Piers Anthony, and Gordon R. Dickson. Michael Moorcock was also a favorite. Bill inhaled all five Elric books in one day while home with a bad cold. More recently he has particularly enjoyed the work of Christopher Moore, Orson Scott Card, Neil Gaiman, John Steakley, and Sir Terry Pratchett. Death's Collector is Bill's first published novel, to be followed by Wee Piggies of Radiant Might and Death's Book of Tricks, all part of "The Death-Cursed Wizard" series. Three unpublished novels preceded Death's Collector, all of which he loves like children despite their irredeemable flaws. Bill earned a M.A. in Sociology from the University of Texas at Arlington. (Arlington lies halfway between Fort Worth and Dallas. The implications may best be imagined.) The most important thing he learned in college is that nobody is under any obligation to teach him anything, including professors. Especially professors, since they've attended classes on how to look down upon the uneducated. That detail may be fabricated, but the principle stands. People have paid Bill to do an odd variety of things, including construction, market research, acting, and managing software projects. He lives with his four cats, who are aspiring internet celebrities, and his lovely wife, a woman so keenly determined that she would always be able to kill him if it came to a knife fight.
