About the Book

From the bestselling author of "The Phoenix Guards, " a tale of immortality that will stick in your mind...forever.

About the Author :
Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and raised in a family of Hungarian labor organizers, Steven Brust worked as a musician and a computer programmer before coming to prominence as a writer in 1983 with "Jhereg," the first of his novels about Vlad Taltos, a human professional assassin in a world dominated by long-lived, magically-empowered human-like "Dragaerans." Over the next several years, several more "Taltos" novels followed, interspersed with other work, including "To Reign in Hell," a fantasy re-working of Milton's war in Heaven; "The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars," a contemporary fantasy based on Hungarian folktales; and a science fiction novel, "Cowboy Feng's Space Bar and Grille." The most recent "Taltos" novels are "Dragon" and" Issola." In 1991, with "The Phoenix Guards," Brust began another series, set a thousand years earlier than the Taltos books; its sequels are "Five Hundred Years After" and the three volumes of "The Viscount of Adrilankha": "The Paths of the Dead, The Lord of Castle Black, "and" Sethra Lavode." While writing, Brust has continued to work as a musician, playing drums for the legendary band Cats Laughing and recording an album of his own work, A Rose for Iconoclastes. He lives in Las Vegas, Nevada where he pursues an ongoing interest in stochastics.

Review :
"["Agyar], " a suave and mysterious drifter who shares an abandoned house with a compassionate African-American ghost, spends his nights seducing various inhabitants of an Ohio college town. Few can resist him, but he eventually finds himself obsessed with two women, one a beautiful young dancer, the other a harsh taskmistress of indeterminate age. One offers him salvation, the second seeks to destroy him...Packs more of an emotional wallop than any verbose gore fest served up by less imaginative talents." -"San Francisco Chronicle" "Steven Burst, in a genre that's mostly done by numbers these days, maintains a hipster charm and originality of mind." -"The Philadelphia Inquirer" "The author of the Vlad Taltos series and "The Phoenix Guard" offers a fresh perspective on a popular theme of dark fantasy in this penetrating look at an individual caught on the border between life and death." -"Library Journal" "Ý"Agyar¨," a suave and mysterious drifter who shares an abandoned house with a compassionate African-American ghost, spends his nights seducing various inhabitants of an Ohio college town.
