First off, after studying ebook 7 final yr, I used to be an enormous fan of this sequence once I began this ebook. Now, I am much more loopy about it. (I have E-book 1 ready for me to search out time to select it up and begin the earlier adventures of Randall, Camden, and crew.)
One factor that makes this sequence stand out for me is that there are a number of mysteries to resolve. Primary character David Randall is a non-public investigator, so it is sensible that he has a couple of case happening at a time, and that issues he learns whereas investigating one factor can result in new mysteries. I really like the way in which he goes about his sleuthing, taking a skilled, methodical method. He considers all of the angles, talks to all of the witnesses/suspects, and follows all of the leads. He generally has assist from his psychic greatest good friend Camden, however this paranormal aspect isn’t used as a “low-cost” technique to resolve a case. (By this, I imply that Camden would not have a imaginative and prescient at simply the proper time that clearly and simply reveals the responsible occasion.) As an alternative, Camden’s present generally guides David in direction of or away from a concept, however by no means spells out the reply straight.
Each David and Camden are fascinating characters, and their real friendship and take care of one another is heartwarming. Extra main characters are additionally intriguing, and this time round we discovered extra about Kary’s tragic backstory. This ebook additionally featured the Enforcettes, a bunch of costumed warriors who each assist David and add to the mysteries he wants to resolve. They added some pleasant humor to the otherwise-serious homicide investigation.
The ebook is especially set at an area conference much like ComiCon. I loved studying concerning the varied actions and occasions that had been a part of the conference, and was impressed by the variety of fictional fandoms the creator created, in addition to the eye to element given to every of them.
In fact, a lot of the mysteries are solved by the story’s finish, with one fascinating line of inquiry nonetheless open for additional improvement.
I extremely suggest this ebook (and sequence) to anybody who enjoys a very good thriller, PI story, or high quality fiction generally.
5 out of 5 chunks of good cheddar!
