review 1: The 2 doesn't mean I didn't like reading the book. It was a fun romp in an interesting supernatural environment. I know there are more coming in this series and I will be reading them. With that being said, It was not what I would call "well written". The characters are skin-deep troupes, the "twists" are painfully expected, and the ending is rushed. I had fun but don't expect to be wowed by the author. Just enjoy it for what it is.
review 2: Imagine New York, ca 1985. No one ever bought the nasty bits of 42nd Street. Accelerate to today. There are million dollar lofts, but there are also gangs like the ones in the 70s and 80s Marvel comics New York: Rollergirls and men with paper bag masks. There are also goblins in the subways & sewers, plus a gateway to hell
... more. Inside here is an old-time superhero-style adventure, but the superhero is just a big, meaty guy who’s fucked up his familial relationships. Mobsters. Daemons. Goblins. A bang-up adventure book that’s the essence of fun, from a serious emerging talent. less
