Historia
On the streets of Boston, the world is divided into the ordinary Usuals, and the paranormal Unorthodox. And in the Department of Unorthodox Affairs, the Auditors are the magical elite, government-sanctioned witches with spells at their command and all the power and prestige that comes with it. Grimshaw Griswald Grimsby is…not one of those witches.

The butcher road untravelled
Revisado: 03-31-23
For anyone reading this, this is not Jim Butcher. Do not assume any relation to the novel series "The Dresden Files" and you will likely enjoy this novel. Personally this is a good entry in modern fantasy, and very much in line with the idea of gritty detective novels. This is more in line with gritty cop, than detective.
The magic system bears little to no relation to the universe of Dresden, but thats not bad, it;s different and quite honestly by the end of the book im looking forward to reading more in this universe.
To draw a parallel, I enjoyed this book more than Storm Front. It seems more polished and fleshed out. This hints at a direction the Dresden files may have gone. But bears little no no similarity after that, and is better for it.
If you enjoy fantasy lit, give this a fair chance.

Historia
Queenie is back and better than ever! Abbey's recent experiences have changed her, but is it for the better? She's learned the truth about the Seraphim, and General Kett's betrayal has left her to wonder if there's anyone outside of the Rejects she can trust. When the Nephilim begin their assault on the Republic and her daughter is caught in the cross-fire, she'll have no choice but to depend on Captain Mann to do what he can to help. As much as Abbey wants to go home, she has an entire galaxy to protect.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this series. it's light listening and a lot of fun. Just noticed the sound engineering, echos in large rooms and clocks when certain species are speaking, beautifully done. I'm looking forward to listening to more.

Historia
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

Historia
When marine private Oliver Chadwick Gardenier is killed in the marine barrack bombing in Beirut, somebody who might be Saint Peter gives him a choice: Go to heaven, which, while nice, might be a little boring, or return to earth. The Boss has a mission for him, and he's to look for a sign. He's a marine: He'll choose the mission. Unfortunately, the sign he's to look for is "57". Which, given the food services contract in Bethesda Hospital, creates some difficulty. Eventually it appears that God's will is for Chad to join a group called Monster Hunters International.

so much love for the series and this book

Really wonderful collection of short stories, kind of focusing on parenting in a number of them, finishing with what is probably one of my favorite stories in the entire series despite being a short one. So much love.
