Grim Reaper as detective in a unique, thrilling narrative.
This book is a fascinating twist on the classic tale of the Grim Reaper. Seeing Death as a detective on a mission to save the world rather than end it was intriguing. The struggle for identity and power against the backdrop of an approaching Apocalypse added depth to the narrative. This unique take on the Grim Reaper’s role had me riveted from start to finish.

A Mix of Fantasy and Mythology
This suspense-filled story, with its twisting plots, is unlike anything I have ever read. It intertwines urban life and mythological characters with supernatural powers. Justin, the Fallen Angel of Death, lives beneath the streets of the city with Lilly, his girlfriend, and a group of elves who have never ventured into the unsafe world above them.
The story unfolds with the disembowelment of a Wizard and the taking of his powers, leaving the Wizard community frightened. The protagonist, Justin, is trying desperately to regain his memory and lost abilities when he is asked to investigate the growing number of bizarre Wizard murders.
The author keeps his audience captivated as the suspense builds while the story unfolds.
Marcia Dove is the author of the Maggie McManus Murder Mysteries, Fatal Field Trip, Campus Casualty, and the soon-to-be-published Wedding Woes.

Love This Book
There is a considerable amount of character development, the pace is just spot on, and the world-building is really fantastic.
This, the third book in the series, is a very pleasant read on its own because Eric Swett is able to provide the reader with just the right amount of background information. I thought the author’s writing style was enjoyable, and I couldn’t help but feel that it was something similar to the manner of Jim Butcher, who is the author of The Dresden Files.
