Publisher's summary

No guts, no glory.

Being one of the four horsemen sucks. The hours are long, the pay is crap, and every god or monster you meet wants to kill you.

For Lazarus Kerrigan, professional necromancer, even helping the police search for some missing internal organs is a welcome relief. That is, until his ex-girlfriend shows up in the employ of an ancient Egyptian deity, and a faerie queen makes him an offer he can't refuse.

When Laz finds himself pulled into a criminal underworld where human souls are traded like currency, things just go from bad to worse. Unfortunately, his soul might just be worth its weight in gold.

An awesome journey into what lurks in the shadows

- Josh here

Another journey into the world of Lazarus and The Shadow Court. Man, what a fun ride this series is. Once again, the depth put forth for each character really drew me in. Of particular interest in this entry, Darius and The Baron continue to be favorite characters of mine and I am anxious to see what the future has in store for Darius as he tries to go legit.

All of that said, how can anyone say that sausage is better than bacon? Bacon is the perfect food. But hey, as Liz said when I posted to her author page, the characters views do not necessarily represent her own. Plus, Lazarus is an otherwise awesome character so I can forgive that one viewpoint, haha. Also, listening to the description of Jolene and her smile as she was waiting for hot dogs, BAM! Right in the feels.

Travis Baldree did a fantastic job with narration as he did with Death Rites. Needless to say, I cannot wait for the next book to be released.

-------

This is still a pretty good series. It probably doesn’t help that I went from Quincy Harker book 3 to this one given there are a lot of similarities between the two series’. I love the narrator from that series and he always makes me think of Travis Baldree from this one.

I really love Travis Baldree; he’s definitely a natural when it comes to narrating. Some of his accents are out of this world. Because of his accents, it makes it easier (in my mind) to imagine what the character looks like…think of the Baron. He sounds like a cool, interesting-looking guy. If you’ve seen American Horror, I think it was the witch season, the voodoo guy is how I imagine the Baron looking. The suit maker was also an interesting character, both with how he was described as well as his voice/accent. I loved him.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the day/night before Lazarus is confronted with a case or big issue, he’s unable to sleep, so a good majority of the story is him talking about not having slept in so long and being really tired.

On to book 3

Denial ain't just a river in Egypt

After losing his girlfriend and becoming the pale horseman Laz went on a bender and when he surfaced New Orleans was under siege. It will take all he's got to put the town back together. Great series. Laz is like Dresden with worse luck.

Pretty Good...

This series is almost a copy of Dresden but once you get past that, it is pretty good. I believe it can hold its own.

Entertaining

The story is entertaining and held my attention. My only complaint is It feels like it's a generic version of The Dresden Files, all the way down to the deal with the bad Fae Queen, tension with the female cop and disappearing love interest. I'm curious to see how the series unfolds.

it's okay for what it is

I'm a fan of this type of fiction (Reading Simon R Green and Jim Butcher) and I like the novels in this series, however; they seem less polished. I think E. A. Copen has untapped potential, I hope it comes through in the next book.

Travis Baldree, on the other hand, is the perfect person to narrate this series and really draws me in, where the story lacks, he makes up for it.

Love the fantasy, wit, and characters!

Organ Grind by E.A. Copen and narrated by Travis Baldree is book two in the series but I am already so invested emotionally in this series. I absolutely love the characters, the interplay between the characters, the unpredictable plot, the fantastic fantasy, and great action and emotions! This is full of witty dialogue, humor, suspense, and unique creatures.
Travis Baldree is super brilliant making sure the characters all have voices that match their personalities. He is awesome! I can't wait for the next book!

Accent socks, but good writing.

The guy reading sounds as if hes never heard of NO let alone have a native accent.
But the writing is good. The story flows well. So 👍🏾
