Review: Promising Start for a New UF Series
Rating: 4 out of 5

This read starts out with the creepy and blazes a trail through a world that is just awesome.  It is definitely a wonderful beginning of a series for fans of the urban fantasy genre and I really enjoyed the world building and the protagonist's search for his identity.  In my mind he is a bit Dresdenesque and if you are a fan of that series The Generalist has great possibilities.  This was a short read, but is packed with nonstop action to the point where I did not notice, other than wanting more.  The only thing that bothered me was some of the slang or "ghetto" speak by the main character at the beginning of the story.  The character has amnesia and is struggling to find out who he is; however, he is very smart and in my opinion it makes the story less believable, and it is for this reason I gave the story 4 stars rather than the 5 I would have likely rated it otherwise.  This tones down as the story progresses and it is a much more enjoyable to read as this occurs.  I love the peripheral characters who are a fun and unique group of folks that I want to get to know more.  I am looking forward to reading more from this series and have high hopes for a great ride.  I picked this book up from Smashwords, where it is offered as a free read.
