A potent mix of gangsters and magic...gripping fantastical. - Publishers Weekly

Thoroughly entertaining...urban fantasy fans should be all over this one - Booklist

Mick Oberon...quickly becomes likeable, full of grumpy asides and funny turns of phrase. The mystery Oberon investigates is also good... Be warned: the resolution - and there is one - leaves several ends untied for sequels. - SFX

This is brilliant urban fantasy fiction, great fun for anyone who likes the genre and wants something a little different. Oberon is a guy you'll come to root for, while the setting of Chicago in the 30s sets it apart from other similar books. Read this if you want to meet the best Fae PI in town! - Wondrous Reads
