Voice & Vein is a strong start to Clove & Durance's Broadsides series. There are nice twists on the typical urban fantasy tropes - particularly in the authors' magical system. The dynamic between the two main characters (Kian & Rosemary) is compelling, and the writing is punchy and funny. My only gripe would be that the writing style is a little mismatched to the audience, a little juvenile. But even so, I'm excited to read the other three in this series.
