This tale follows Prince of Wolves (check http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2lp29?Pathfinder-Fiction-Chronology#20 for a useful reading order)and is a very enjoyable interlude involving a mystery on board ship. I love the contrasting and engaging characters of Radovan and Jeggare and the seamless integration of the Pathfinder World Setting. In this short story Jeggare becomes Poirot as a detective mystery unfolds aboard ship.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Tales: A Passage to Absalom ePub</b></p><p>I've started filling in the gaps in my Dave Gross reading list.

I remember hearing an interview where Dave Gross described his elevator pitch for <i>Hell’s Pawns</i> as, “A fantasy Sherlock Holmes story where Holmes is a half-elven noble and Watson is a Teifling.” This story brings the boys back to their roots.</p>
<p>While travelling from Ustalav back to Absalom to bring the <i>Lacuna Codex</i> back to the Decemvirate, the Codex is stolen. While Radovan and the Count investigate, murder strikes on the boat. Everyone has motive and Count Jeggare and Radovan must sort through the clues.</p>
<p>The mystery is fun, the clues and misdirections are believeable and not transparent. Count Jeggare’s explanation of all the loose ends is very entertaining. Overall, this is a highly entertaining mystery story.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Tales: A Passage to Absalom ePub</b></p><p><b>•••Warning!: This review contains minor spoilers from preceding Tales!</b>
