Review by: Ginger-red on April 11, 2013 :
I was given this book for free, in exchange for an honest review.

I found I took a little while to get into this book. The first few chapters of the book were a little slow and if I hadn't have been reviewing this book it might have stopped me from reading. However, I'm so glad that I kept reading, as the rest of the story was fast paced & I grew quite quickly to like and enjoy the characters.

This is a book of fantasy, steampunk, gods, demons and magic. Most of the books I've read in this genre have been young adult books, but this is deliciously dark and "grown up", but still with plenty of humour. Mark Sargent really built up the atmosphere and intrigue as the book progressed and I can't wait to see what happens in book two.
