There's plenty of action, the pacing is fast and the characters interesting ... an interesting book that deserves to be recommended
Brassy, sassy, and hip! Well s' promising debut is a fast-paced trip through a dark and dangerous landscape featuring an unusual take on vampires, mages, faeries, and demons. It hooks you on page one and takes you for a great ride!
Fast-paced and funny ... Very enjoyable!
Action-packed suspense at its best. And urban fantasy doesn't get much better than this. Steeped in mystery, intrigue, and magic, this debut is one of the best I've read in months
