Soon they’re plunged into a deadly adventure of cursed cities, sinister necromancers, and untamed magic. The killer is expecting them. After all, he invited them to carry out his master plan.

When an amnesiac deity is accidentally resurrected by an ancient evil, his only hope of remembering who and what he once was is a vampire named Lamia. When she runs to him for protection, an inescapable fate is unleashed upon them both as they fight to survive.

I've said it before, but sometimes I'm a bad person. I cheated on my 12th-grade math final, I've run countless yellow lights, and I gossip about how hot my kickass best friends are. (Good thing my job as a guild bartender doesn't require moral perfection.) But there's bad, and then there's bad. And I'm not sure which applies to a certain dark druid/wanted criminal/reluctant friend of mine. His transgressions include black-magic dealings, kidnapping, and murder, and he's about to add "revenge-fueled killing spree" to his resume - if I don't stop him. Should I stop him?

Povídka Ladislava Klímy Slavná Nemesis, která poprvé vyšla v roce 1936, je jedním z nejlepších příkladů temné fantastiky 20. století. Hrdinou vyprávění je Sider, který je doslova uhranutý dámou v modrém a je odhodlaný ji hledat na vrcholcích hor, v hlubokých lesích i v psychiatrické léčebně. Je však dáma v modrém skutečná? Nejde jen o vidinu? Siderovy úvahy se čím dál víc propadají do víru paranoie, iluzí a klamu a povídka pozvolna odhaluje odvrácenou tvář lásky, totiž neředěné zlo a šílenství.
