Review: This Disillusionists' short was A 'Lucky' find for me

It's been a while since I read the first book of the Disillusionists, but even though I don't remember that much from the series - and I didn't remember either of these characters or if they were present in that book - I remembered enough of the framework of the series to feel comfortable jumping back into Crane's world and she supplied everything else that was needed for me to really enjoy this story.Even at the short length, the leads - Fawna, whose talent is that she sees the future and Simon who is able to spread his recklessness to others - were well developed and those who follow the series will be happy to discover what makes the pair tick.  And I thought that the romance was well done and liked that even though Fawna and Simon initially seem so wrong for each other - she can't enjoy the present since she sees everyone's long term fate and he lives like there's no tomorrow - but they end up be so right for each other when all is said and done.So I really enjoyed Devil's Luck and now I really have to go digging through the TBR pile to see if I have any of the other books in the series in need of rescue.
