Conrad Brent is a mage without magic. A middling or possibly a god-in-waiting with an abundance of ethics and morals. His power is in his out-of-the-box thinking. He successfully offends a segment of the fae and comes home to discover that a wealth of enemies has invaded his city.
Shvartsman has come up with a highly likable character who
recognizes that occasionally it is imperative to be ruthless. Kind-hearted and yet filled with righteous indignation
over any kind of mistreatment of “his” borough citizens, Conrad gets his butt
kicked but bounces back.
I’d hoped for a rapprochement with Herc would happen but
perhaps in the next book. Moira O’Leary has
grown into a full-blown character. She
may be my new favorite with her skewed understanding of karma.
God, fairies, trolls, guns, spells, battles what’s not to
like?
I recommend the book and the series!
