This is a short story introduction to Deacon Chalk and his series. It takes place a few months before the first book in the series, and really makes the style of the series clear. This is a dark comedic urban fantasy with lots of action and excitement. There is profanity, but it fits Deacon's attitude and narration.Deacon is likeable hero who is a slightly broken man with a sad past who fights against supernatural bad guys. He is attitude and sarcasm with a soft gentle streak.I loved Deacon, and can't wait to learn more about him and his crew. If the rest of the series is as fun, exciting and thrilling as this short story, it should be awesome.
