![]() ![]() Storylines and characters abruptly drop off. It became hard to follow along and at some point I became desensitized. ![]() Everything from firebirds to necromancers to fawns to demons to harpies to dragons guns to submarines to mech-suits magic portals to healers to telepathy. Bad This book was like The Big Bang of urban fantasy, with 20+ hours of ever expanding creatures, casts, plot, magic, technology, and magic. I like that, in addition to following Bryce and Hunt, folks like Ruhn and Theron have stories interwoven into the greater story. Enemies become friends, friends lose their way, and the politics of magic makes strange bedfellows indeed. For the first twenty hours of this book, I was captivated by the expanding cast of characters, especially the storylines which showed old characters in entirely new light. Good I loved the first book, with its fresh, snarky and compelling urban fantasy story. Gah! It’s an Empire Strikes Back middle book, in both good and bad ways. 20 hr prologue to 7 hr book and 1 hr not-finale ![]()
