    "A Better Man" was published in the anthology Blackguards: Tales of Assassins, Mercenaries, and Rogues.About this story, author Paul S.

Their stories are pacy, filled with action and wit (I hope). I think of them as a cross of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, spiced with a bit of Conan and Indiana Jones... more
