Saga of the Noble Dead
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Saga of the Noble Dead is a series of novels by Barb and J.C. Hendee.
[edit] Series overview
The series tells the story of Magiere, who is a dhampir (a vampire/human hybrid), and Leesil, who is a half-elf (an elf/human hybrid). Magiere is unaware of her ancestry, the discovery of which comes as a considerable shock. Leesil is only too aware of his, which is the reason he left home in the first place.
At the start of the story the two "half-breeds", together with Leesil's dog Chap, make a reasonable living pretending to be vampire-hunters. Eventually the inevitable happens and they cross paths with some genuine vampires. Hoisted by their own petard, they are plunged unwillingly into what amounts to a small war.
