I loved it!Proceeds at breakneck speed through almost 500 pages of madcap adventure,with some terrific jokes and plenty of tensionProceeds at breakneck speed through almost 500 pages of madcap adventure,with some terrific jokes and plenty of tensionTeagan is a frank and funny narrator for this wild ride,which starts off with our heroine falling from the 82nd floor of a skyscraper and pretty much never slow down. Readers will be glad to learn that it's set for a sequel. A fast-paced,high-adrenaline tale that manages to get into some dark themes without losing its sense of funFurious,frenetic,fun,and'fck you': All equally valid descriptions of this book and its punk rock chef/psychic warrior protagonist. It's like the X-Men,if everybody was sick of each other's sht,they had to work manual labor to pay rent,and Professor X was a sociopathic government stooge. A drunken back-alley brawler of a bookFord's strengths are evident in the taut action sequences and suspenseful pacingFast-paced and a lot of fun to read...If you're looking for a high-action contemporary fantasy with a bunch of irreverent humour,then this is your book...a modern action movie that just happens to be in book form
