"Great. A bunch of zombies were stealing my corpses." Halloween in Manhattan gets weirder than usual for the newly minted DeathSpeaker, as Gideon Black finds himself up against a powerful necromancer who's looking to raise a lot more than the dead. This story takes place between Wrong Side of Hell and Fields of Blood, books 1 and 2 of the DeathSpeaker Codex, but can be read and enjoyed without having read the series. Dance of the Dead first appeared in the anthology Full Metal Magic.
