I think I just found myself a new favorite series. As much as I enjoyed the first book, "Forever After", this is even better and I didn't know that it would be possible. I found interesting the way he was relating the story and oh yeah, I still liked the book from the point of view of a reaper. It was that kind of dark story, in which death is something usual, where Michael and his friend Chip are entitled to make sometimes morbid, but always funny jokes.But something happens in the city and Michael finds himself on the tracks of a brutal serial killer which turns out to be something more than human. And the killer targets, for some reason, Michael. The way the dead bodies were described sent chills down my spine, that actually being one of the reasons why I liked it.I found interesting how the story shifted from the third person to the first, but in the middle of it was still Michael.The killer was unexpected, I had my theories, I kind of suspected him but I thought that I might be mistaken just like it happened to Chip with the first suspect. Still, the killer was just like a snake, all charming and friendly and even fooled everyone.The ending was tragic with another two lost lives and this time Michael was blaming himself and I have the odd feeling that this won't be something that will fade away to soon.
