Bookburners Season One: Episode 9...

Bookburners: Ancient Wonders (Season 1, Episode 9) - Mur Lafferty, Max Gladstone, Margaret Dunlap, Brian Francis Slattery

We've been to Vegas, we've been to Rome, Glasgow, Ostia, Tanner City etc. etc...now the Bookburners head to a small monastery in Borgen-Bresse, France to take on, none other than -zombies! (or "animated remains" as some of the Bookburners call them) As they continue to hunt the mysterious Mr. Norse who played nasty with them in one of their previous missions, he keeps leaving little surprises in his wake, like zombies, to slow Team 3 down, while he moves closer and closer to finding the one book he doesn't need to get his hands on, the Codex Umbra. 

 

This was another outstanding episode by Margaret Dunlap. Team 3 has exhausted all of their leads so they have to channel a little ancient magic of their own. Team 3 is normally against the use of magic because of the dangers that surround it so seeing them cook up some magic together was a lot of fun. : )  I'm looking forward to seeing how the cat & mouse chase plays out in the next episode...
