On Arth, the future of finance revolves around deep politics, hidden interests, and dark magic. Notably absent is actual money.
Crypt currency is the future. The enchantments are reliable. The aethernet infrastructure is sound. And despite the fact the currency is stored in something called a pocket crypt, relies on phantoms of the dead, and often involves a worrying green glow, experts agree it has nothing to do with necromancy. All of the big crypt magnates say so.
Then pocket crypts unleash sorcerous chaos at a funeral. Then a necromantic blight begins rotting the countryside. Then Gorm Ingerson, guild auditor and professionally skeptical Dwarf, starts following the money that isn’t money, and learns that economics is far more deadly than advertised.
Along the way, Gorm will discover that there are no real experts in noncorporeal cash, Dwarven cultural identity, nor matters of the heart. He’ll need to navigate all three if he and his friends are to survive a crisis that’s rapidly becoming less financial and more apocalyptic. Because when crypt currency crashes, the dead don't stay dead—they come to collect.
A novel set on Arth, the world of the award-winning Dark Profit Saga
