Review by: Alex Draven on Jan. 22, 2013 : star star star star
Fantasy meets police-procedural, this was a little hard going at first - there's so much in Pyrrh that is unfamiliar - but soon had me hooked, wanting to see both how the crime was solved, but also how Parshan and Zhivana would figure each other out. I suspect there's a lot of Pyrrh still to explore, so look forward to future episodes!
