I really ended up liking this book. At first it dragged and I thought this was not a writing style I enjoyed and the story telling was just fair. I think about 75 pages in I got to know the characters and there were a lot of characters it seemed. Once I got them all straight I found I really enjoyed the story and each of the ghostly characters. I thought the Jack's of All Trades were great villains.

I really liked the ghouls even though they weren't in it for very long. I wanted to DNF this book
