The Spook's Curse


The Spook's curse (Väktarens förbannelse) is the second out of 6 books. If you would like to know what the first book is about you can read my other post.

The Spook's curse starts with how Tom describes in detail, how he defets a very nasty boggart in the town near by. When the spook finds out that his brother had been killed, he and Tom head to Priestown where his brother is going to be buried. But Priestown is the favorite town for a Quisitor, a witchhunter who kills many innocent people in place of actual witches and would like nothing more than to get his hands on the spook.
But that is not all, Tom an the Spook has to try to find a way to defet the Bane
- a spirit of the dark that lives in the catacombs under Priestown. Influencing and corrupting the priests and pressing his victims flat to the ground. It seems to be impossible- especially when Tom finds out more about his master's background, in particular the rumours about a curse that has been placed on the spook since he first started the trade.

This is a really good and detailed book.
