The Trick to Brothels (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798231698295)

When a captured mage is told to buy his life with a story, Carnelian doesn't spin a grand saga or a bloody war. He tells the truth. Or at least, the kind that cuts.

His tale begins in a brothel run by witches and demons-a found family more human than most men he's known. But the story darkens, circling a friend who weaponized guilt and turned Carnelian's own identity into his greatest fear.

Witty, lyrical, and haunting, The Trick to Brothels is a dark fantasy memoir of a sharp-tongued anti-hero who survives by refusing to be anything less than himself.
