Submitted by Rodney Powell (Jul 11, 1999)This marriage between sword and sorcery and hard-boiled detective fiction. Hawk and Fisher are city cops of a sinister city called Haven.They are also husband and wife. They battle political corruption, magic and murder in three deadly cases: Hawk and Fisher where they battle a deadly inhuman killer in a politician's house. Winner take All-they must protect a candidate from death threats from his evil rival and his sinister wizard. God Killer-Hawk and Fisher must catch a killer who is targeting the minor gods of the city. This novel has scenes of violent action, tough and cynical dialogue of our two heroes and a memorable fantasy world that combines crime of our world and magic menace of a fantasyland. Think Tolkien meets Mickey Spillane!
