Book Description:
Simon Todd is an everyday
accountant, who after unceremoniously falling from his neighbor's roof, somehow
finds himself dead and transformed into a ghost on a quest to find dragon
treasure.
He is joined on his journey by
the horrid scoundrel and gunslinger, Dick Dashing, the sweet and powerful
necromancer Miss Baxter, and Jane -- not John -- Darcy (the dragon in disguise
who doesn’t quite understand the nuances of gendered nomenclature).
While traversing across the
country of Freland, the unlikely party discovers that their trek for gold is
involved in a conspiracy with wizard mobsters. Mages begin appearing who
attempt to collect Miss Baxter for ransom, and Simon (smitten by the young,
undead-wielding wizardess) finds himself within the center of a revolt against
the unscrupulous Chancellor Heironymous Grimguild, leader of the wizard mafia.
To make matters worse, Simon is confronted by Hell Lords, the four horsemen of
the apocalypse, and circus-crazed Reapers bent on sending the hapless accountant
to hell! If he can’t get the hang of his ghostly powers, Simon Todd will be
less a help but more a burden to his ragtag party of friends.
Meanwhile Jane, the proud purple
diamond-backed dragon in disguise who had originally thought to devour the would-be
treasure bandits, must decide which is more important: his wonderful hoard, or
the increasingly endearing bundle of fools he has found himself amidst.
Can Simon help Miss Baxter evade
the mafia of decorated wizards? Will he be able to bargain the Reapers for his
life and procure for himself even a modicum of dragon treasure? Will humans
prove too sweet for a gentleman dragon’s diet?
