Huge fan of the author here and very happy I was able to read this short novel as I thoroughly enjoyed it.
There are elements of one of my favorite book (Gaiman's Neverwhere) as as there's a parallel London where magic is strong and weird and magical characters populate it.
The author is a master storyteller and I loved the world building, the excellent character development (the Damned above all) and the fast paced plot.
There's plenty of humor and there's a dark side to this funny story.
It's highly entertaining and gripping, strongly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
