I think this was a case where the book had received so much hype that I was bound to be disappointed when faced with the reality. I saw another reviewer described it as magic-noir and that is a perfect description because upon reading the first few chapters you feel as if you've been transported into a Mickey Spillane story. It was totally unexpected and not a welcome direction for me because I'm not a fan of crime novels after having OD'd on that genre back in the 90's.

I enjoyed this one. There was a lot of humor, and the story was good. The down side is, I saw the plot twist coming the whole time. There was a lot of action, and little to no romance. Was refreshing. What I found the most annoying was there seemed to be a humorous line at the end of every chapter. It was nice and fun the first few chapters, but then you realize it is always coming. It loses its charm. Definitely recommend
People kept telling me I'd enjoy Jim Butcher's Dresden Files series but I procrastinated starting it for whatever reason. Now I'm kicking myself. One of the most well thought out and original series to come along in a while.

A little hard to start, but great ending.
