Steven Brust's first three novels featuring assassin Vlad Taltos and his jhereg companion were collected in one volume as The Book of Jhereg. The Book of Taltos continues the adventure with books four and five in the series -Taltos and Phoenix. Vlad Taltos is an assassin unlike no other. Not only is he quick with a sword, but he also possesses a gift for witchcraft conjuring. The latest addition to his already formidable arsenal is a leathery-winged jhereg who shares a telepathic link with Vlad -making him twice as deadly The adventures chronicled in Taltos and Phoenix find Vlad accepting a job in the Land of the Dead, but a living human being cannot walk the paths of the dead and return, alive, to the land of men. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your point of view), the Demon Goddess is willing to rescue him - if Vlad is willing to grant her a favor in return.

The power to alter the course of nature and history, to summon spirits, control the weather, become invisible. The power to use charms, songs and riddles, to cast spells that cannot be resisted. These are the powers that set the wizard and witch apart from mere mortals. Now, in the pages of Wizards and Witches, you may enter the hidden sanctuaries of these master magicians and discover their dark secrets. With one flash of brimstone you'll find yourself transported to a midnight realm of magic, wizardry and darkest sorcery. Wizards and Witches bubbles with a beguiling brew of chilling witch tales, stories and lore, and the secrets of the magical touchstones which bring untold power.
