This originally appeared at The Irresponsible Readeras part of a quick takes/catch up post, —emphasizing pithiness, not thoroughness.

This book (and series, I guess) kicks off in the aftermath of Three Mages and a Margarita—and I love the idea of multiple series that are interwoven yet independent. It's going to get difficult to track at some point, I bet, but that's on me.

When the officials sweep in to clean up after 3 Mages one of the mages arrested is a low-powered psychic, Kit Morris. Really, the MPD is more interested in who Kit can lead them to than him—and they're playing hardball with him to get to his higher-powered pals.

What ensues is Kit trying to play the Agent who's trying to get him to flip and looking for a chance to escape (and neither working too well). A strange alliance forms between them.

I had a lot of fun with this one, maybe more than I did with its predecessor. Iggy Toma sold me on the characters, too, I really enjoyed the narration. I'm looking forward to spending more time in this world.
