I think I liked the first book a little better than this one; the contemporary urban fantasy tone came through more strikingly. But this was still strongly written, and a fun read. The mythological elements came though less strongly in this one, as it was not set in an area where the gods Eno believes in are present, so any magic in his current setting was not viewed as divine. That jarred me a little bit, since the treatment of mythological nuance was one of the stronger points of Hero for Hire. I think I would have liked something a little closer to home, dealing more with Eno sorting through his family history, and dealing with his gods, but personal preference aside, it was a good read, and a good follow up.
