If you haven't read any of Mark Hayden's previous books, then the characters and relationships in the first third of the book will be confusing. Don't worry, either go back and catch up on Conrad Clarke's journey or stick with it and you'll find a police procedural hiding within the lore.

Reviews

These are adult Fantasy/Adventure novels. In all the ways that Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings are not. They are, also, modern hip and funny. The world is well conceived and coherent and the plotting logical and, often, surprising. The cast of characters is worthy of a Russian novel. It all hangs together and sucks one in, seamlessly.
Goodreads reviewer - RA
Another brilliant part to this story is over far too quickly and I could have easily turned another couple of hundred pages of this one. With familiar characters and new introductions this series delivers a now familiar yet thoroughly unique read. Thank you! What's next??
