Synopsis: A down on his luck wizard-for-hire must save his new boss from a deadly ice demon in this urban fantasy novel for fans of Jim Butcher and Benedict Jacka. Colin Fisher is a young man with a lot of problems on his plate: a dying father, a dead car doubling as a home, and a mysteriously disappeared fiancée. You&’d think with a magical inclination he&’d be able to turn it all around, but not so much. Yet his bad luck appears to be on the way out when the CEO of a multinational corporation offers him a job. It&’s a sweet gig as a personal wizard with a fat paycheck. It just has one catch. The paranoid CEO isn&’t a mere hypochondriac, he&’s been hexed with an authentic ancient curse. Now Colin is the only thing standing between his new boss and a frozen bundle of fangs, claws, and rage. If he can&’t stop the cannibal ice demon in time to save his new boss, it&’ll be back to living out of his dead car. That is, if he even survives the battle.&“Well-researched and creatively presented humor and action perfectly blend with moral quandaries in this outstanding debut.&”—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
