Worth a listen if you've got an extra credit

Revisado: 04-29-19

Being a Cleveland native, I got a good chuckle when I saw that this book is set in my hometown. That coupled with the synopsis including the words "fledgling imp war' meant I had to give it a listen. Overall, I enjoyed it. In a genre where all the protagonists are private detectives and bounty hunters, I thought Alec being a supernatural collection agent was an interesting take; although he still does the work of a detective, just with a different job title. It may be because I'm from there, but the fact that it's set in Cleveland is barely a factor in the story, beyond name dropping a few towns in the great Cleveland area. The Dresden Files takes place in Chicago and Jim Butcher really uses the history and design of the city as part of the story. This book really could've taken place in any generic city and it wouldn't have changed anything.

All that being said, I did like this book (although it was a bit short). I liked that Alec isn't a wizard or a demon or a druid or some other kind of super magical entity. I love his partnership with Meg. On the whole I'd say this own is worth checking out if you're a fan of the Dresden Files or Iron Druid series
