About the Book
An omnibus of two novels.
- Nifft the Lean
- The Mines of Behemoth
THIS TIME,
THEY WOULD MAKE A KILLING
Join master thief Nifft the Lean with his companion-at-arms, mighty barbarian Barnar Hammer-Hand, as they trust to their wits and their luck. Once Nifft and Barnar were hired by the ghost of a dead woman to kidnap the man who betrayed her and drag him down to hell to join her. A simple task – or so they thought at first...
Another time, the pair lucked into an even more lucrative proposition, when they were shipwrecked on the way to work in Costard's sap mine – very dangerous and sometimes nauseating work far below ground – and were hired by Bunt to bring back twenty gills of the ichor exuded only by the monstrous insectile queen. It seemed like easy money – they wouldn't have to go to hell! Of course, the best laid plans sometimes do go astray, but this time they were sure they would... make a killing.
