This is just some good ol’ pulpy fun. Really not serious in the slightest, the two main characters are a couple of goofs, and I would honestly enjoy if the author produced a series of novellas focused on this crew across multiple adventures. Finished this in one go, great way to spend part of an afternoon.

ARC obtained through Edelweiss/Titan Books.
I honestly loved this. It's a quick comfortable read, though still eerie enough to keep you on edge. It reminds me of the early Anita Blake series - spunky, unique, morally gray detectives teaming up against otherworldly evils.
Ford and Neuland have great chemistry and complete each other perfectly, while Tilda is just the strong female icing on the cake.

One alive one dead 2 goons for hire. This was a fun little creature feature when they do a job for an old mean rich man that turns out bigger than they bargained for. Really enjoyed it quite a simplistic style.

What a fun, quick read!
This felt like I was playing a game of Arkham Horror or watching an episode of Supernatural or Angel. The main characters were fun, the noir genre was heavy, and the plot plotted.
It took me less than 2 hours to read the whole book and it left me satisfied and wanting more at the same time.
I’m happy to see it’s going to have a sequel and I will be so excited to be back with Neuland and Ford.

I liked this novella! It was really different. Not as horrifying as I'd hoped, but I enjoyed it just the same. I liked the lore and the magic wards, and I liked that the read was quick.
