Having read the blurb I initially expected a bit more paranormal influence in the story apart from being ordered to kill people on the whims of another and being teleported when summoned. I guess I watch too much "Once upon a time in Wonderland" and felt it was a bit slow in the beginning and the relationship between Dimitri and Syd seemed superficial with no real substance behind it. Having said that the plot progressed quickly enough and there were lots of other threads to the story that kept it interesting. Karl's daughter seriously needed a good smack as she was so spoilt and self absorbed, the kind of character we all love to hate. I did read this book in one sitting and it was entertaining, the ending will surprise you though a bit too convenient I felt. I will be buying the next book in the series and look forward to reading more as the characters develop over time.
