Synopsis
A series far ahead of its time, now back in print
Anyone else would have learned by now: when trouble comes knocking, don't open the door. But there's a reason why Garrett's still in the P.I. business after all these years-he's not one to learn his lessons. Maybe that's why he lets himself get roped into being a bodyguard for Kip Prose, an obnoxious kid being threatened by creatures that can't quite be described. But before Kip Prose has a chance to explain what he's done to get on the hit list of some nameless nasties, the precocious Prose is abducted, and the chase begins...

About the Author
Glen Cook used to work the assembly line at a General Motors plant, writing in between helping to build cars as they came down the conveyor belt. He has written extensively in the science fiction and fantasy fields, and is the author of the Garrett, P.I., novels and the Black Company alternate history series.
From Booklist
Garrett is a PI who should know better than to open his door when trouble comes knocking, but everyone makes mistakes. Trouble arrives in the form of his friend Playmate and Kip Prose, a kid being hunted by indescribable creatures he calls elves. Kip insists the elves are actually after his friends Lastyr and Noodiss, who, incidentally, have provided him with a wealth of industrial-strength inspiration as part of their plan to get back home. Before Garrett can back out gracefully and nurse his hangover, Kip is abducted by another set of indescribable creatures. In a chaotic but satisfying (Garrett might occasionally argue how satisfying) hunt, Garrett experiences all the things he loves about his job--ambushes and chases, having to get up before noon--and thinks that it might be time to get out of the business. This caper has everything--beautiful women, beer, villains of all sizes, lotsa laughs--and its mad pace and twisted deduction are both eminently satisfying. Regina Schroeder
