I'm only just beginning to get into urban fantasy, and was in despair that it was all vampires and werewolves in city settings with swooning teenagers everywhere.

This book for all its differences is still written by the same author you loved for Memory Sorrow Thorn, Otherland or Shadowmarch (which one could argue is a bit lenghty at times). It is obvious in the depths of Bobby Dollar's musings in the moral issues that are raised en passant between a car chase with a Balrog and the arguing for a soul against an advocate of hell. <br />Read this as soon as you can and thank you so much Deb for my advanced copy - I'll reasure it.Ylvsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-53801531310347372252012-08-20T19:18:49.580+00:002012-08-20T19:18:49.580+00:00Very good review!Very good review!Olafhttp://thedirtystreetsofheaven.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-37269493358463937372012-08-20T18:56:55.518+00:002012-08-20T18:56:55.518+00:00TDSoH isn't typical urban fantasy.
