    About this series

    Lish McBride's urban fantasy debut Hold Me Closer, Necromancer garnered rave reviews from critics and fans for its hilarity and madcap action. In this brilliant sequel, neophyte necromancer Sam LaCroix is still getting used to being on the local magical council, not to mention having a werewolf girlfriend and a shapechanging feline butler. When his sister begins receiving threatening messages and a dead body surfaces, Sam wonders if his old nemesis Douglas is responsible. There's only one problem- Douglas is dead.

    Lish McBride

    Lish McBride grew up in the Pacific Northwest. It rains a lot there, but she likes it anyway. She spent three years away while she got her MFA in fiction from the University of New Orleans, where she managed to survive the hurricane. She enjoys reading, having geek-laden conversations about movies, comics, and zombies with her friends, and of course trying to wear pajamas as much as humanly possible. She lives happily in Mountlake, WA, with her family, two cats, and one very put-upon Chihuahua. Her debut novel, Hold Me Closer, Necromancer was named an American Library Association Best Book for Young Adults and was a finalist for the YALSA William C. Morris Award.
