As a member of the Watch, the group that protects the mundane humans from such dangers, he risks his life on a regular basis. Sometimes twice before lunch. Sometimes during lunch, when he dares order his food from a street cart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter regaining his position in the Watch which he'd temporarily lost due to the machinations of a variety of evil-doers, Conrad doesn't want to take any risks he doesn't have to. But now his boss is missing, there's a totalitarian new regime in City Hall oppressing all magic users, and the mayor has aligned himself with a diabolical villain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn order to save the day, Conrad must team up with a recovering necromancer to mediate a dispute between two ancient enemy factions, solve a mystery of a warded house adjacent to a cemetery, and stand with his friends against tyranny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat is, if the interdimensional fae assassins don't get him first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781647100827\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 8.75 inches, Length: 5.75 inches, Weight: 0.7495716908 Pounds, Width: 0.75 inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Shvartsman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51863708303667,"sku":"9781647100827","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3636\/7411\/files\/11826813482774.jpg?v=1754202440","url":"https:\/\/bookabaloo.com\/products\/kakistocracy","provider":"Bookabaloo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
