My review of Knights, Necromancers And Murder by R M Schultz

This book was a great fantasy read including witches and necromancers as murderers and over 30 deaths in Red Pike’s Landing. The witnesses when questioned couldn’t agree on their statements so no definitive answer on what the murderer looked like. They sent for Calec of the Woods to come and sort their mystery out. He agreed to go along with Serileen, a witch, who had agreed to go as well. It was an enjoyable read with an easy reading style. R M Schulz is a good author and writes well with good imagination. This is book two of a series but can be read as a standalone.

Blurb : 

Murders are occurring in a fantastical city by the sea.

For over a year these events have plagued Red Pike’s Landing. And no one has been able to find the killer who takes all the fingernails of their victims and tucks them into bed.

Witnesses are unreliable … but for good reason. Perhaps magic lies at the heart of these deeds and covers the Necromancer’s tracks.

Calec of the Woods is called upon for aid. And Serileen, Calec’s witch lover, must accompany him while harboring a dark secret of her own.

The closer Calec comes to the Necromancer, the faster he must solve this mystery or he and Serileen will become the Necromancer’s next victims.
