Oh look, a story from the male love interest’s POV. Every series needs one these days.

Oh dear, how did we fall this far down when it comes to this series? What happened?

This is only half a good read – the second half. The first half is clumsy filler material.

Ever get the feeling of being stuck in a rut? Worse, stuck in Chess’s rut.

The beautiful messiness continues.

Much credit is given to the author for coming up with a different, even daring, kind of urban fantasy series.

Is it a law that heroines of urban fantasy all need to whine like a kettle on boil?

The fun tone of the previous book in this series has turned into non-stop whining and moping. Ugh.

This one won’t break new grounds, but it’s snazzy, fun, and sharp. So why not?
