Fiction by A. Lee Martinez
This was a fun little fantasy story about a castle ruled by an evil magician (Margle) and managed by his pleasantly efficient assistant, Nessy. One of Margle's odd quirks is that he never kills his enemies; rather, he curses them to horrible (but creative!) fates and imprisons them in his castle forever. Nessy's job of keeping the castle in order is greatly hampered by the cursed things, such as a bleeding wall that makes a nasty mess; plus there are quite a variety of monsters that simply must be fed on schedule.
I enjoyed this book; it was funny and also had an interesting plot.
