For half-elven Pathfinder Varian Jeggare and his devil-blooded bodyguard Radovan, things are rarely as they seem. Yet not even the notorious crime-solving duo is prepared for what they find when a search for a missing Pathfinder takes them into the gothic and mist-shrouded mountains of Ustalav. Beset on all sides by noble intrigue, mysterious locals, and the deadly creatures of the night, Varian and Radovan must use both sword and spell to track the strange rumors to their source and uncover a secret of unimaginable proportions, aided in their quest by a pack of sinister werewolves and a mysterious mute priestess. But it’ll take more than merely solving the mystery to finish this job. For shadowy figures have taken note of the pair’s investigations, and the forces of darkness are set on making sure neither man gets out of Ustalav alive...
From fan-favorite author Dave Gross comes a new fantastical mystery set in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.
Is this the cover or is this one of the other products? I love the art, and I don't remember seeing it before. Of course with the ever expanding pathfinder products, it may just be slipping my mind.
We have some good news—you won't have to wait until September for the first book in our Pathfinder Fiction line to arrive!
Dave Gross has turned in a fantastic manuscript for Prince of Wolves, and we've been able to adjust the release schedule so that his novel will now kick off the line at Gen Con Indy in August! Elaine Cunningham's Winter Witch will move to fill the October slot that Prince of Wolves previously occupied.
We've already adjusted subscriptions so that subscribers will receive Prince of Wolves as their starting volume in August, and Winter Witch will be ship to them in October. Subscribers don't need to do anything... except count the days to August!
Keep your eye on paizo.com—we'll be unveiling final cover art for both of these novels in the near future, and in just a few months, we'll be announcing more books and authors for 2011!
I bet it will soon be revealed that it's part 1 of a trilogy that has yet to be announced.
I can neither confirm nor deny that. Except for the deny part.
Although, who knows—if you guys read it, love it, and demand that we turn it into a trilogy, it could happen. I know James Sutter will be right there with you...

I am often shocked to feel a presence at my elbow, and turn just in time to see Sutter right there before he disaparates. It's pretty unnerving, even after it becomes a frequent occurrence.
Hmmm, It's got Ustalav, but someone had to go use the 'crime-solving duo' descriptor. I find myself at an impasse.
Have you read the stories in the Council of Thieves AP? There is no need to be off-put by such a descriptor. Surely Holmes-Watson isn't off-putting? For what it is worth, the two characters get the "Mairkurion Seal of Approval." I might even give them double honors...

IIRC, the main tieflingy thing about Radovan were his scary messed up teeth. Some tieflings just have less obvious, more easily hidden quirks than others.
like the cover, kind of old school Forgotten Realms to me
It does have that kind of feel, like a TSR-era novel from the late 80's/early 90's.
I'd love to see that the range of art styles that includes this and the more stylized cover for Winter Witch continue, really. One single style would just be a killjoy.
