A friend recommended the second book in this series, but it's my inclination to start at the beginning, so...
A departure for me, this novel is a detective noir-fantasy hybrid (or that's what I'm calling it). There are lots of interesting ideas here, though parts of the story seem silly and illogical. There were some circumstances that were eye-roll convenient.
Still, I found myself drawn into this chaotic, wild story. I enjoyed the author's sense of humor and some of his similes are hilarious. It was over-the-top violent, but ended on a funny note. I appreciated that. And, by the way, this novel hardly takes itself seriously.
It was fun.
