The mystery part is interesting and solid.

I assume I am one of the few that won't complain about the Italian phrases as it's my mother tongue :)
I found this cozy mystery a fun and engrossing read. I appreciated the cast of characters, not a lot of stereotypes, and the descriptions of the setting, not overly turistic.
The mystery was interesting but I guessed the culprit quite soon.
I am curious about the next instalment and I recommend this one.

An excellent, well written and enthralling epic fantasy according to my heart.
I loved the great characters well thought and perfect for a quest that requires great heroes with no grey moral area, some great villains and an amazing world building inspired by Japan.
I appreciated the strong female characters that are kick-ass and not sort of damsel in distress.
The plot flows and it is both entertaining and gripping. I love how fast paced and action packed this story is and I love the end that keeps you on the edge till the epilogue.
I loved everything in this book because it was a great travel to a different universe and a different time.
It was a good series and this is an excellent end.
I strongly recommend it especially if you want to read an entertaining and well crafted epic fantasy.

I love the humour, the well written and quirky cast of characters, and the well plotted mystery.
The mystery is solid and it kept me guessing.
Can't wait to read the next instalment.
Highly recommended.

It was an engrossing and entertaining read, a bit darker that the previous instalment.
There's a lot of character development, especially for Halloran who is facing the ghosts of his pass and trying to go on with his life leaving the drama and the trauma behind.
This solid mystery is full of twists and red herrings playing on the similitude to murders in Halloran life but nothing is what it seems and the action packed final part is exciting. I couldn't guess the culprit and it came as a surprise.
The rest of the gang makes an appearance and I was happy to read about the again.
The setting is lovely, small town instead of a city, and it made me wish to visit the area soon.
I was afraid it was the last in this series as the last pages seems to describe the end but I was more than happy to see there's a next instalment coming.
I can't wait to read the next story.
An entertaining read, strongly recommended.

I look forward to reading other books by this author.

It's a heartwarming and uplifting story that made me laugh and root for Bea.
Bea is a well written character and you cannot help rooting for this sweet and generous woman.
The plot is entertaining and engrossing, it keeps you hooked and the author did a great job in creating a plot that flows and a great cast of fleshed out characters.
It's an excellent read that I strongly recommend.
