Customer Reviews
Enjoyable bit of fun.
The characters are very entertaining and well described. It's amusing, full of action and has an intriguing storyline.
There are some very funny moments such as when Killian (the elf) had passed a compliment to Maggie. 'I suddenly felt very awkward. So I lobbed the bagel at his head.'
Rather ironic that Maggie doesn't bat an eyelid when confronted by vampires but is almost a quivering wreck when she has to visit her mother. Somehow, that was very easy to relate to!
Xiaoming, a very grumpy Chinese gentleman was probably my favourite character, although it's a pretty closely run race.
Well worth a read if you don't mind Maggie's somewhat prolific bad language, usually directed at the long-suffering Killian!
