Scorpion Wine (Qiq, the Bounty Hunter, Volume 1)

Ki Khanga has always had its heroes. Men and women of honor, who risk it all for life, love, freedom, or to beat back the evil that threatens to creep, crawl, or fly from the Cleave and consume the world. Then there’s Qiq. Skilled. Brilliant. Deadly. For the right price. Qiq is the bounty hunter called when no one else is bold enough, crazy enough, or greedy enough to do the job, but he doesn’t come cheap because he always gets the job done and done well. Now someone has said, “To the Cleave with Qiq’s reputation,” double-crossed him and left him to die. Big mistake. A tale of redemption? Nope. A coming of age quest? Hell no! This is a tale of bloody, brutal (and sometimes snarky) revenge. Served cold. With a tall cup of Scorpion Wine.
