Really enjoyable bit of urban fantasy noir.Refreshing urban fantasy that eschews the traditional Masquerade style tropes to put its supernatural elements to the foreground, in an almost indulgent manner. Characters have very soap-operaesque names like Rune Saint John, but it once you get past the floweriness of it, you see it works in favor of the narrative. These are not magical beings lurking in the shadows, carrying secrets upon secrets they can never reveal. These people are privileged and conspicuous, at times even ostentatious about their magical power and it helps paint a picture of a very different kind of world, almost a mystical Great Gatsby-like world that seems dangerously on the precipice of self-destructing from its own lack of restraint.The main character, Rune, provides a witty and sardonic counterpoint to his world's rarified existence, and he and his companions craft a quip-a-minute narrative that is very reminiscent of the works of Jim Butcher or Joss Whedon. There is also a very welcome amount of queer representation in the book, always written positively and matter-of-factly but with a great deal of honesty.The book's tarot imagery is also a lot of fun, although you don't need to be well versed in the cards to understand them. Furthermore, the worldbuilding and magic system is incredibly fresh and engaging, and it syncretizes a number of real world occult concepts together into something unique and distinct.The book does have a few problems that I'm willing to chalk up to being standard "first novel" issues; there is a lot of information presented all at once towards the beginning and the story (correctly) takes a "show, don't tell" approach, but it still can be a little disorienting and require you read carefully not to miss a detail for when it is expounded upon later on. There is some dialogue that is a hair too bantery, a few places where the prose is a smidge purple, but there are way more hits than misses. However, by the 90 page mark I was on track and eager for more, with minimal confusion and maintaining a good pace. I fully anticipate the next installments in the series will refine these issues and deliver a really solid, and most importantly, fresh and unique take on the urban fantasy genre that is also rich with lore and engaging, non-preachy queer positivity.
4.5 stars. I gave this book 4.5 stars because it could have used a last pass by the copy editor and I just have to take something off for that lack of attention to detail. Besides this book was so good that the author really should have given it that last bit off polish. Even so, I rarely give five stars and I usually take a full star off for proofing, but I just couldn’t punish this book because it was too excellent. The writing, while not as laugh-out-loud funny as Jim Butcher, was as clever as Jim Butcher. They world was original and imaginative, and well-realized. There wasn’t a lot of superfluous exposition, but I felt I understood how the world worked at all times. In the rare instances that it was a little unclear, it was also unclear to the characters just what was happening, so it was relevant. The plot was fast-paced yet left time for character development, backstory, and exploration of the different relationships between characters. And the characters themselves were engaging, sympathetic, funny, and well-differentiated. My only quibble about them is that I didn’t get a good sense of what most of them looked like. That’s not really important to the integrity of the story, and a lot of readers probably don’t mind, but I like physical descriptions to help me get a good mental picture of the person. Each character had a very different voice, however, so it was easy to differentiate them as one is reading. I liked how the plot turned out, and didn’t see the twists coming. The ending gave a resolution to immediate events but also raised some more questions to be explored in coming books (I really hope this turns into a long series), without leaving a cliffhanger. Lastly, this is a fantasy with a gay protagonist, like Mercedes Lackey’s Last Herald Mage trilogy, not a book about being gay or a gay fantasy romance. Don’t read this if you’re looking for an explicit romance, read it because it’s an awesome urban fantasy. You’ll be disappointed if you’re looking for sex scenes, but you’ll be excited by the story and characters themselves. Just read it. Then go put the next book on your list to be picked up the minute it’s available.
