™ and ©1990 Steven Brust

This adaptation of Steven Brust’s novel introduces the characters of Vlad Taltos, a sorcerer turned assassin, and his small dragon-like familiar, Loiosh. Their world is a complex system of aristocratic politics, merchant trade, and mysticism, all combined in a never-ending game of deadly intrigue.

In this story, Taltos is hired to kill a noble who has stolen from the ruling council. But Leareth has cleverly used the strict protocols of their society to provide himself with sanctuary…he can’t be killed without escalating the already precarious conflict between the ruling houses. Of course, as a master of his craft, Taltos is not so easily hindered. And he’s not above starting a war or sacrificing his friends if it means getting the job done!

This graphic novel by Alan Zelenetz and John Pierard features an introduction by the original author, Steven Brust.
