I'm still only a barber to the supernatural, and I still have super weak magic, but I've somehow been tasked with essentially saving the world.
Yeah, I know. And if I don't deliver, it's my neck on the line.
So far, it's not going too well. In fact, it's not going at all, frankly. I have no idea where to start, no power to make anything happen, and yes, Tim the cat continues to be a sarcastic pain
...I'm Apiya. No, I'm not a badass magical assassin. I'm a barber to the supernatural.
My magic is very weak and very niche—it works best with keeping things clean.
I know. I can sense your awe at my power already.
And I'm sure you can see why barbering suits me well.
Although now that I've mastered the art of trimming a weretiger's regrowth, my biggest challenge is fielding the insults of the shop's
...But these are turbulent times. In far-off Hive, the spectacular city founded by the goblin tribes, the clan leaders are preparing for war. And out beyond the dread Nightwoods, in the fabled gardens of Riverrise, a one-eyed waif jealously guards the life-giving waters of the mystical Riverrise...
I'm Apiya. If I tell you that I'm a human with magic you'll no doubt imagine all kind of badassery - maybe a demon hunter, a vampire assassin, that kind of thing.
Yeah, that's not me. My magic is weird and weak. It's best used for keeping things clean and functioning as they should.
I know, right? Quake in your boots, all ye who look upon me!
That's why I moved halfway across the world to Panong, the heart of Asia's magical
...I've never been one to stand idly by when a friend's in trouble. Yes, I know that to go looking into why Ilmu is missing is dangerous. Yue's still out there, and more to the point she's not happy with how little progress I've made on our deal regarding Sarroch.
Which means a significant decrease in the value of my life.
Staying home is therefore the smart thing to do. But all the same, a friend in trouble is a friend in trouble,
The final book in the Razor's Edge Chronicles!
How did I wind up chained with silver and pumped full of drugs to keep me unconscious?
I was under the impression that there was no crisis on the horizon, and that Sarroch and I were therefore free to go on our first proper date. Except that I'm clearly a glutton for punishment, because I decide that I should talk to Yue, to clear the air. So even though it goes against
...The plan is simple. Get to the weretiger realm where a wise woman will be able to help Sarroch and I get a mating bond in place, thus saving me from execution.
Easy peasy, lemon squeasy.
Of course it ends up going more like difficult, difficult, lemon difficult.
Which is why right now I'm standing in the stunning forest of the weretiger realm, facing Sarroch in tiger form.
Except that it's not Sarroch any more. Something
...When I say I have magic, you might envision grand illusions, fireworks, or mind-bending tricks. I hate to disappoint you, but I can barely make a broom dance. Hence why my place in the magical world is giving a trim to the unearthly and fantastical.
And now that the supernaturals have come out in public, things are getting seriously interesting. Especially when one of my regulars goes missing.
I'm never one to stand on the sidelines
...You know that sickly feeling in the pit of your stomach when things have not just gone wrong, but very, very wrong?
Yeah, that feeling.
Like when you find yourself alone, facing off against an angry pontianak, a type of Asian vampire, who on top of being powerful, magical, and deadly, hates your guts.
At the time the risk seemed worth it to find out more about my magic.
Now? I wish I'd just stuck to barbering
