Nightlife

Post Dresden, the expectations from this genre are mighty high. While Rob could not match Jim Butcher in character depth or plot, she does make a very good fist of the relationships between her characters. Of course the highpoint of this book is the way the relationship between the brothers is handled. Humor is subtle but not genuinely funny. Rob has done enough to ensure I read the next book in the series which I think is in itself a huge achievement. I see this developing more like Mark Del Franco's Connor Grey series which personally I thought was quite good. Like I said, pre-Dresden I might have scored it a 4.5 but now I must limit myself to 3.5. Lets see what lies ahead.
