"There’s only one Al
MacBharrais: Though other Scotsmen may have dramatic mustaches and a
taste for fancy cocktails, Al also has a unique talent. He’s a master of
ink and sigil magic. In his gifted hands, paper and pen can work
wondrous spells.
But Al isn’t quite alone: He is part of a
global network of sigil agents who use their powers to protect the world
from mischievous gods and strange monsters. So when a fellow agent
disappears under sinister circumstances in Australia, Al leaves behind
the cozy pubs and cafes of Glasgow and travels to the Dandenong Ranges
in Victoria to solve the mystery.
The trail to his colleague
begins to pile up with bodies at alarming speed, so Al is grateful his
friends have come to help—especially Nadia, his accountant who
moonlights as a pit fighter. Together with a whisky-loving hobgoblin
known as Buck Foi and the ancient Druid Atticus O’Sullivan, along with
his dogs, Oberon and Starbuck, Al and Nadia will face down the wildest
wonders Australia—and the supernatural world—can throw at them, and
confront a legendary monster not seen in centuries."--Goodreads blurb
Kevin Hearne, with his accompanying narrator Luke Daniels, can do no wrong. Sometimes they're a bit eye-rolling-ly silly, but Hearne is hilarious, and Daniels can do voices like no other. I love the characters in this series...talk about all walks of life! We got to see Atticus (from Hearne's Iron Druid series) play a central roll in this book, as well as his sausage-loving dog Oberon. Whatever Hearne writes in this Fae universe, I will always read.
