[Spoiler Free Review]I am genuinely surprised that nothing has been done with this franchise yet. It's perfect for a cartoon series or animated movie maybe! Sad, sad... But this book is a great introduction into the series. Great characters, unique and interesting world and the banter is top notch. There is not much to say except for: MUST READ!

This is one of my favorite book series I have read. It is the perfect amount of suspense and magic and mystery. It also has crime in it. I find that this book has a great hold of making the reader want to read more and continue reading until the end.
