Sinister Magic (Death Before Dragons Book 1)

Details: I take care of magical bad guys who injure humans. Permanently. With the rest of the magical community, this does not make me popular. But, because of my half-elven blood, a formidable blade named Chopper, and a telepathic tiger with a personality, I've always been able to solve my difficulties. There may be some cursing and swearing, but there is little doubt about the aplomb.
