Gremlin Night is Book 1 in the Agents of Sorcery series and I loved everything about it. Dale Ivan Smith has a fabulous imagination. He has created a well thought out world and populated it with amazing characters and creatures. His world building is second to none, exceptionally well developed characters, and his prose draws you into the story and you experience what is happening. This is a magical, mysterious, fast paced, action packed tale of adventure. One you will not want to stop reading until the end and then be left with wanting more. I highly recommend this story and can assure you that you will not be disappointed. Received an ARC and this is my voluntary and honest review.
Received as an ARC, this is an honest review. Sorcerer Agent Elizabeth Marquez works for R. U. N. E- an organization tasked with keeping the mythical and fantastical world a secret from the modern world. When her job of bringing down a crimelord ogre goes awry, landing her into hot water. To save her career, she is given the task of delivering a ‘ fly by night’ trapped in a chrysalis to a Director Farlance. Unfortunately, even this case for her becomes far more than first assigned; something is stirring up trouble her and her partner Tully find themselves embroiled in. Highly recommended.
This is a great read. It’s an amazing tale of magic, mystery, danger and adventure that will pull you in and keep you entertained from beginning to end. Elizabeth is a great character. She’s a feisty, sarcastic sorceress that always manages to find herself in dangerous situations and working for R.U.N.E keeps her right in the thick of it. Luckily with a partner like Tully he helps keep her grounded however, when Tully’s away all bets are off. This awesome book is definitely worth giving a read, you will not regret it.
One of my favorite authors, Dale Ivan Smith, is back with a new book, Gremlin Night, that (yes!) is the start of a brand new series, Agents of Sorcery. Exciting stuff and, no surprise, a very easy review to write. This book is, quite frankly, is superb. Well written (as is always the case with this author), with a great plot, a perfect cast from Elizabeth (Liz) Marquez on down and perfect world-building (I love the whole concept of an agency enforcing magical laws that keep the supernatural hidden, it’s the perfect story platform). Also totally fun. Exactly what I look for and easily worth five stars.
Liz Marquez is on probation as a field agent. Her rookie partner thinks she’s a loose cannon. Based on Liz’s impetuous, headstrong and enthusiastic plunge into dealing with chaos, it is hard to say that the rookie is wrong about Liz. I admire Liz’s willingness to do almost anything to get the bad guy; it might help if she used a little foresight rather than barreling ahead willy-nilly. How did she manage to avoid being sent to the Silos as a prisoner?
I received an ARC from the author and I am voluntarily leaving a review.
