Excellent urban fantasy novel in an excellent series Todd V. Leone I've been a fan of the Jonathan Shade series since Book 1. The clever twist Gary Jonas uses as to Jonathan Shade is that he's a private eye in a world where magic is known by and marketed to the general public. Jonathan Shade as a P.I. investigates paranormal crimes, but unlike most sleuths in urban fantasy mystery novels, Shade has no magical capabilities. In fact, what makes him unique is that magic does not affect him directly. A practitioner of magic could manipulate objects in such a way as to harm him -- for example, if a practitioner levitated a small boulder over Shade'. "Couldn't put it down" according to Kat. Couldn't put it down. Found myself saying just one more chapter. Finished the book in a day and a half. Loved the characters and the authors sense of humor. My only complaint is I haven't been able to find the next book. Can't wait to find it and continue the character's stories.. Five Stars Amazon Customer another great installment
