In 2011, D.J. McIntosh took the book world by storm with her bestselling debut novel, The Witch of Babylon. Praised by The Globe and Mail for its “stellar research” and “superb writing,” it introduced readers to John Madison, a rakish New York art dealer with a past. He uncovered a fabulous treasure trove of antiquities in the hills outside Baghdad and discovered the truth behind a famous story long believed to be a myth. In this sequel, John Madison travels to London to purchase at auction a rare seventeenth-century Italian book of fairy tales for an anonymous client. Madison is warned of the book’s malevolent history, but before he can deliver it to the buyer, he is robbed by a mysterious man claiming to be the book’s author. When his client disappears and the book’s provenance is questioned, Madison must immerse himself in the strange world of eccentric European aristocracy and rare-book collectors. As the dark origins of familiar fairy tales appear to come to life around him, Madison discovers that a well-loved children’s story contains a necromancer’s spell and points to the source of a deadly Mesopotamian plague.

A deadly disease threatens humanity, and the only clue lies in an ancient book of fairy tales... John Madison, a dashing New York art dealer with a dark past, travels to London to purchase a seventeenth-century Italian book of fables for an anonymous client. Before he can deliver it to the buyer, he is robbed by a man claiming to be the book’s author. When his client disappears and the book’s provenance is questioned, John must immerse himself in the strange world of European aristocracy and rare book collectors. Trapped within this shady world, the dark origins of familiar fairy tales come to life around him. Faced with mortal peril, Madison discovers that a well-loved children’s story may contain the key to the book’s history, unearthing a necromancer’s spell, the source of a deadly Mesopotamian plague. The Book of Stolen Tales, second in the nerve shredding Mesopotamian trilogy, is perfect for fans of Raymond Khoury, Kate Mosse and Scott Mariani.

So I told them these stories—and others—to lure them to the printed book, much as carrots are dangled before the nose of the reluctant donkey. They are four average intelligent children enough, but they hold severely modern views upon storybooks. Waverley, in especial, they could not away with. They found themselves stuck upon the very threshold. Now, since the first telling of these Red Cap Tales, the Scott shelf in the library has been taken by storm and escalade. It is permanently gap-toothed all along the line. Also there are nightly skirmishes, even to the laying on of hands, as to who shall sleep with Waverley under his pillow. It struck me that there must be many oldsters in the world who, for the sake of their own youth, would like the various Sweethearts who now [vi]inhabit their nurseries, to read Sir Walter with the same breathless eagerness as they used to do—how many years agone? It is chiefly for their sakes that I have added several interludes, telling how Sweetheart, Hugh John, Sir Toady Lion, and Maid Margaret received my petty larcenies from the full chest of the Wizard. At any rate, Red Cap succeeded in one case—why should he not in another? I claim no merit in the telling of the tales, save that, like medicines well sugar-coated, the patients mistook them for candies and—asked for more. The books are open. Any one can tell Scott's stories over again in his own way. This is mine. S. R. CROCKETT.

What do you do when monsters are eating your cattle? Call a hunter. What do you do when a monster bigger than your house walks by? Call a group of hunters and open a tab. This is going to be expensive. Being a hunter is a life of adrenaline, adventure, glory, and wealth. After all, not just anybody is willing to poke a dragon in the eye and save the city from certain death. The only catch is you have to live long enough to enjoy the benefits. When the fight tomorrow might kill you, you live for yourself and your friends today. So when someone is stupid enough to kidnap one of their own...There's a chance this could end diplomatically, but it'll probably be by the axe.
