ReviewsPraise for Prosper's Demon : "As if Deadpool had slipped into the body of the Witcher Geralt." -- The New York Times "Rich with spiky ideas and with Parker's inimitable and always entertaining voice." -- Locus "A fresh take on the well-trod demonic possession trope...[that] will draw in fans of dark speculative fiction, especially admirers of Martha Wells and Grady Hendrix." -- Library Journal
SynopsisIn K. J. Parker's new whip-smart dark fantasy, a group of scholars must do the impossible for a ruthless king. The cost of refusal, of course, is death. History isn't truth, it's propaganda. Seeking war with his neighbor, the tyrannical ruler of Aelia convenes several of his kingdom's professors for a chat. First Citizen Gyges only just invaded Aelia a few years back and, naturally, his public image can't take the hit of another unjustified assault. His totally sane solution? Simple, really. These scholars must construct a fake ancient city from scratch to verify Gyges's apocryphal claims. Now these academics must put their heads together to make history. Because if they don't, they'll lose their heads altogether .
