a fantastic novel with twists and turns that make me both love and am furious with the author over. a wonderful addition to Butchers stamping series, I hope for much more, but less torment.

For anyone reading this, this is not Jim Butcher. Do not assume any relation to the novel series "The Dresden Files" and you will likely enjoy this novel. Personally this is a good entry in modern fantasy, and very much in line with the idea of gritty detective novels. This is more in line with gritty cop, than detective.
The magic system bears little to no relation to the universe of Dresden, but thats not bad, it;s different and quite honestly by the end of the book im looking forward to reading more in this universe.

To draw a parallel, I enjoyed this book more than Storm Front. It seems more polished and fleshed out. This hints at a direction the Dresden files may have gone. But bears little no no similarity after that, and is better for it.

If you enjoy fantasy lit, give this a fair chance.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this series. it's light listening and a lot of fun. Just noticed the sound engineering, echos in large rooms and clocks when certain species are speaking, beautifully done. I'm looking forward to listening to more.

another excellence addition to the Monster Hunter series. if you've enjoyed previous editions and want more stories without world ending consequences this will for the bill.

Really wonderful collection of short stories, kind of focusing on parenting in a number of them, finishing with what is probably one of my favorite stories in the entire series despite being a short one. So much love.

I am in love with all the Dresden series. If you are a fan of Urban fantasy do yourself a favor and give it all a read.
