[Deni Loubert · Rating 3 out of 5]

Although a bit of a slow start, I grew to like this story, though I never loved it. The world he has set up is believable, and the characters are well done, but it took me a while to care about them and what happened to them. It has just enough of a mystery to it, why did his sister die and who caused it - to make it interesting. But, the main character, Gabriel is not someone you really like or care about. Nice pacing, good backstory and perhaps someone else would be more in synch with the character than me.

Good read, lots of colorful characters and situations.
