The Giant Riot
(2021)(The Pixie Job)
(The third book in the Mission: Magic series)A novel by Diana Pharaoh Francis
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE PIXIE JOB WAS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS PART OF THE DIRTY DEEDS ANTHOLOGY THAT CAME OUT IN JANUARY 2021. DIRTY DEEDS IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE.
It’s a truth universally acknowledged that any sane being who sees a pixie should immediately run in the other direction. Don’t look back, don’t stop, not even if you happen to be having a stroke or spontaneously burst into flames. Get as far away as possible and maybe, just maybe, if you’re very lucky, you’ll get clear of the disaster zone before all hell breaks loose. Because hell will break loose, and when it does, even the mountains will wish they could hide.
Mal has been enjoying her extended vacation—aka recovery from near death—but tomaytotomahto, right?
Fortunately for her sanity, the vacation comes to an abrupt end when a flood of wedding guests, eager to see a pixie marry a giant, pour into the luxury hotel where she lives. Adding to the sudden excitement, her boyfriend’s pet goat drops a bloody hand in her lap.
It soon becomes clear that someone not only wants to stop the wedding, they want to change the I-do into I-dead.
Mal must investigate a murder while pixies spread mayhem and giants reveal a rather dangerous secret about themselves. With the help of her ghost companions and demon frenemy, Mal and her witch boyfriend race to find the culprits before they can kill the bride and groom, not to mention annihilate the eastern seaboard.
But there’s more at stake than marital bliss. An ancient curse and a revenge plot guarantee nothing is quite as it seems.
Mal doesn’t mean to end up in a life-and-death struggle, but then again, she never does. The question is, has she recovered enough from her previous near death experience to survive this one?
Genre: Urban Fantasy
