Kaye Wagner paints beautiful imagery in this collection of dystopian stories. We get drawn in by following the baby faced detective, Kirin, through Teigen, a bustling metropolis in the devastated world.We quickly realize Kirin isn't a normal detective, and see how planned and detailed, every move, and decision he makes is. This isn't a typical dark dystopian book, it is truly a fantastic read. Wagner has taken sci-fi dystopia to a whole new level.This series has a great fantasy feeling to it, so it may not be perfect for the pure, die hard scientific sci-fi  lovers. But with fantastic stories, amazing characters, intriguing dialogue what's not to love? It really is great for teens on up to adults. There is nothing childish, but noting vulgar or offensive either, just good fiction!I love the dynamic between Our hero Kirin, and his unwitting(wreckless at times) side kick, Jake. What starts out as Jake being followed due to a serial murder investigation, turns into a friendship, and partnership, that builds throughout all the stories.I was sad for the books to end, but then I saw Wagner has released books 4-7 Legendary Detective in the City of Kings! And stories 8-10 sometime in Jan! So I can get my fill of great legendary detective stories.This series was a pleasant surprise in a sea of underwhelming dark dystopian books, and I will be recommending to everyone who enjoys this genre. My first one is buying a copy for my son on Christmas!
