Thraxas by Martin Scott
In the fantasy noir novel, the protagonist is a down-on-his-luck private investigator and sorcerer living in a city rife with crime, magic, and political intrigue. Despite his penchant for overindulgence in ale and a gambling habit that keeps him perpetually short on funds, he's drawn into a complex case involving a stolen item of great importance, a murder mystery, and a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of society. With his sharp wit, magical skills, and a tough female bodyguard by his side, he navigates through a series of dangerous and humorous encounters, determined to crack the case and restore a semblance of order to his chaotic world.
