Interesting spirit-side story. Not the best in the serie in my opinion, but entertaining. I could guess some of the plot points including the last part. We'll see how this develops in the next opus.
Very entertaining nevertheless.

Actually extremely disappointed with this story and the eventual conclusion. Can't 100% articulate it so soon after reading, but there seems to be some implications that don't sit well. Granted, Butcher has been able to pull great stories or if what I felt were bad paths before... Just not excited about this one.
