Serpent's Tower

Constantinople. 1910. They hired Wendel to kill first, ask questions later. What a waste of a necromancer's talent. Besides, he's bored to death of being an assassin. This job might be his chance to go rogue..."Serpent's Tower" can be read as a standalone story; it takes place three years before Shadows of Asphodel, the first in a series of dieselpunk novels.
