I wanted to like this book because I liked the setting and the magic system. What spoiled it for me was the complete lack of urgency. And that nothing ever seemed to seriously threaten the protagonist, not even when he’s cornered a nest of enhanced Fae and their CIA handlers. And the encounters with deities, also rather … mundane. I got it for 99p on Kindle and I don’t think I’ll be tempted by the sequel unless it’s similarly discounted.
