Erikson, Steven  
Malazan Empire: Bauchelain & Korbal Broach #1 / #2 / #3: Bauchelain and Korbal Broach: Blood Follows / The Lees of Laughter's End / The Healthy Dead
Three novellas of the enigmatic and eccentric necromancers Bauchelain and Korbal Broach.

'Blood Follows': In the port city of Lamentable Moll, a diabolical killer stalks the streets. As Emancipor Reese's legendary ill luck would have it, his employer is the killer's latest victim. But two strangers have come to town, and posted a notice - reeking of death-warded magic - that they seek a manservant.

'The Lees of Laughter's End': Bauchelain, Korbal Broach, and their manservant Emancipor Reese set to sea aboard the Suncurl. Alas, there's more in the baggage hold than the crew knows, and unseemly terrors awaken.

'The Healthy Dead': The city of Quaint's zeal for goodness can be catastrophic, and no one knows this better than our stalwart champions of all things bad. The homicidal necromancers and their substance-addled manservant find themselves ensnared in a scheme to bring goodness to utter ruination. Sometimes you must bring down civilization . . . in the name of civilization.
