For now, I'll just say that this book was just amazing. I was practically shouting words like, "Holy Shit!", or "Damn!" half the time I was reading it. I loved every bit of the book, from the Inca names and phrases, the mobster, and really, just the whole concept of the story. The book was shocking, riveting, and immensely fascinating. Capac was a character that I well loved, even if of course, he let his dark side win at the end. I just really loved this book, and I'm practically thanking every god that I can think of for giving me the chance to accidentally stumble into this book's shelf during the last book sale that I went to. Dark urban decay mixture, with a newb to the city that we can learn the ropes with and who we can absolutely love as a character even when he is a complete ass! Especially when he is a complete ass. Decay, corruption, crime, and secrets sift through the excellent writing and then blend with subtle hints of supernatural and esoteric secrets. All shrouded in mystery and plots within plots within plots. I love this kind of story. Shan writes it well, pulling you in and keeping you glued to the story. However, by the end of the story, the secrets are spilled. I enjoyed everything up to that point, but I have never been one to enjoy seeing what is behind the curtain. I am looking forward to reading the next in the series, which I am hoping will show that what I thought was behind the curtain is merely another curtain and even more mysteries.-- Justin Killam, author of Seven Crows
Do You like book Procession Of The Dead (2008)?
The shallow characters sure get chummy quick in this book. Easy, mindless entertainment.
