Sequel to Unshapely Things.
I eagerly awaited this sequel and I have to say I wasn't disappointed. As a fan of both Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden and Simon Green's John Taylor I have found another fun magical/paranormal hero to root for.
Connor is still coming to terms with the damage that had crippled his ability to work magic but is actually becoming much more of a hero without his powerful druidic magic than he was with them. The story takes you from the heart of the Guildhouse to a troll's lair (where else but under a bridge) and everywhere as Connor helps his homicide detective friend Murdock investigate the death of a young man as the rest of Boston focuses on the murder of a high profile Elvish Ambassador.
There's more fun and snark between Connor and Meryl as well as the standard craziness that always seems to ensue when Stinkwort AKA Joe is around.
I picked this book up last night and read pretty much straight through and I hope the author is already writing the next one and that this series is as succesful as The Dresden Files or Tales from the Nightside because I'm hooked.
