I want to go on an adventure with these characters

I always feel at home with Trevor's characters. They are nice, intelligent people who love each other. That doesn't stop them from giving each other constant shipt. This book built nicely on the camaraderie of the first while moving through a new adventure and expanding the 'family'. I listened to it all in one sitting. Ok, maybe a couple of interruptions for skype meetings. ...stupid corporate status meetings, interrupting my... Whatever, buy this book and book 1 if you haven't. Then buy the Moonrat saga. You'll get lost and you won't regret it.

BTW... there is a new reader. I was indignant for about 5 minutes, then completely forgot until I was writing this review.

Yes new narrator (with big shoes to fill)

I went into this scared! I have read most of Trevor's books but I have listened to all of them! A new narrator is like Weird Al chosen to do voice work for Darth Vader!

That being said it was like a new pair of boots, put it on at first it was hard to move and rubbed me the wrong way but a few chapters in they were comfy as a second skin (is that comfortable, not sure but sound good like TJ Clark's voice).

I beleive this is second book surpasses the first Tallow Jones book. Now that the characters are developed it opened up a great world for them to roam and cover people in awakenings! It's a very fun read and we have a few new characters to round out the world!

You should definitely give this a listen if for no other reason then to loose your self in a fun tale of manic murder and the wizard of mysteries!

This series is really starting to take shape.

First off, I really like what this narrator has done with series. It fits well with the characters.

This is a light, noir, detective magic story that is suitable for young and old even if the father has difficulty with his no-swearing bet he made with his 8 yr old daughter.

Bad things are happening in Chicago. Blood is spilt and the body count is rising. Tallow Jones' magic alone may reveal who the killer is. Who or what the killer is..

I miss the narrator from book one! 😢

I enjoyed the book almost as much as book one! I think if it had the other narrator I would have enjoyed it more! This narrator was good but the other one was great! This makes a book to from a 5 star to a 4 star.
Tallow has to deal with a someone bringing in something or somethings into this world that doesn't belong. Only he can fight it since only a handful of people know he has magic.
The characters are great but the way it was told it didn't come out as funny as book one 😣. I was counting on giggling. The clever and witty lines were there but the delivery wasn't. Ugh!
The narrator was good but just not for THIS book!

I put off this series way too long.

Loved this series! it is an intricate and excellently written story! Some of the voices are a little too similar and I always prefer male voice actors for males and females for males but the voice acting was still good and you could here the emotions well.
