I started I think at book four by chance, then went back and read the earlier books. JUST READ THIS AMAZING SERIES. I have no words. The writing is incredible, and unlike most long-running series, it has continued to be incredible. I have given up on several of my long running favorites - most heartbreakingly Agent Pendergast (if you know you know and your mourn along with me 😔) but Charlie Parker and his friends continue to fascinate. I’ve learned so many things from Mr. Connolly’s books, I can’t even explain. Do yourself a favor, dive in and allow it to take you away

Could have been 400 pages shorter, editing is abysmal

What a great book and initial introduction to John Connolly. I’m hooked! On to the next Charlie Parker book.

Love this whole series. I’ve read them all and considering reading them all again.

This book constantly tricks you into thinking it’s not racist or homophobic and then ladles a giant helping of either concept into your bowl. Even that I could have lived with if the main story made any sense. There’s two plots with the thinnest thread holding them together. Neither one is good enough to stand on its own and standing together they’re constantly in a tug of war for importance. I kept reading it only because I found it was excellent at helping me go to sleep. I can’t believe this got published. Save your money.

Excellent. The first in the Charlie Parker series. I just recently found this author. Read two other books by him and I'm hooked. I have 11 of his books sitting in my queue right now by this wonderful writer. Kc

Hauntingly well-written. I am in awe every time I read John's work. No one else paints with words quite so well.
