    <body><![CDATA[This is a truly amazing urban fantasy.  The characters are strongly drawn and intriguing, and while the plot is not new, it's handled well.  One of the strongest elements of this book for me was the way the Gypsy/Dove character slipped involuntarily from a magical to a realistic view of his surround...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/53380768">more...</a>]]></body>

Pretty standard urban fantasy bit of fluff, with some vague prophecies delivered by bland characters in annoying verse. <br/><br/>It wasn't all bad.
