Quite a magical start. I think I like it and must continue.
This book was from the February pick it for me in the MM group. Thanks CJ for choosing a unique out of my norm book.
I'm not normally a Historical Paranormal type reader, but found this to be an easy relaxing, even funny at times read. This is my first time reading this author. This book is very well written, with a original storyline. I loved the ending. It was a truly magical story. ...more

I read this all night and could only remember bits and pieces. I loved it. Stephen and Crane coming together was explosive with flying birds. The mystery and how the evil warlocks were destroyed was epic!!!
Great world building and some great characters. Loved the relationship between Lucien and Stephen. looking forward to the rest of this series.
