the creativity

nothing it was a great addition to the series. can't wait for the next book

great story keeps going.

the ending was too abrupt in leaving us unsatisfied. Yes I will get the next one, but if I die. I will die unsatisfied with the end of b this book.

the way the suspense keeps you on the edge. Waiting to hear what comes next

the cussing could be a bit less. I don't think the f-bomb is a necessary needed word.

The best book so far

I’ve enjoyed this series. At least one of the books though wasn’t great, if I’m being honest, but just getting to this one will make the journey worthwhile. What an amazing story! Things really come together and get really interesting.

Excellent addition to the series

Can’t wait to hear what happens next! Love this series. This was my favorite book yet.

Excellent Story

May I have another!
As always, the wait was worth it, I just hope the next will be soon. Thank you.

Another good book.

Good story, progression killer cliffhanger. Similar humor and story progression as other books if you like them, you’ll like this. pacing is probably faster than other books.

Great addition to the series

I hope many people are discovering this enjoyable and quirky series.. Every Character is important and well developed.. RC BRAY is a master class.. Love the series cant wait for next book

the focus wasn't only food this time!

I've been really enjoying this series. My only real criticism with the previous books was that Craig focused too much (in my opinion) on meals! I get that food is a huge part of his and Skippy's writing, but this book didn't focus so heavily on it. Oh also it was action packed!

Total Badassery

As always, Craig and Bray deliver! I adore Duke and Boots as characters and I'm completely in love with how Bray portrays the Djinn.
