Stuck in the ice in the Arctic and there is definitely something out there stalking my crew.

I'm in the little country of Dorimare, fed by two rivers, the Dapple and the Dawl. The Debatable Hills and Elfin Marches separate my country from Fairyland.

Having been chased around Victorian London by undead beings in hoods with their mouths and eyes sewn shut - now eating breakfast in a tavern after hiding out overnight in a hospital! Very good stuff so far ...

Could you tell me the title of the book? I was recently in Kilkenny in the flesh. A book about it sounds intriguing.-Jack
