Questing Beast by Ilona Andrews
3.75
adventurous funny informative lighthearted fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

 Is the Koslov Universe just a short story duology? - because if so, that'sa bit cruel- such a likeable set of characters and creatures. I thoroughly enjoyed this duel with biotech and tech versus the antiquated paper records.

Plot/Storyline/Themes:
Defeating the hackers to regain lost data but it's fun and a little kooky.

Two Sentences, A Scene or less - Characters:
I can feel the insomnia and haze faze rolling of Sean Koslov. Like he could sleep for a week.

Favorite/Curious/Ludicrous/Unique Scene: :
Sean And Vern in discussion and Gods and basic worshipper-god agreement:
Verne picked up a stick, hefted it in his hand, and hit the idol. Thwack!
Sean stopped. “Verne?”
“Yes?”
“What are you doing?”
“He has been a bad god,” Verne said grimly. “He must be punished.”
Thwack! Thwack!


Favorite/Curious/Ludicrous/Unique Quotes:
