You can also read mine, and MLE's reviews on our blog.Disclaimer: This book is not for the weak hearted, it is very bloody, gory, and has a few scenes that made even me cringe. The main character is a necromancer, though not evil, his sense of humor is quite macabre.With that being said, I really enjoyed this book. It wasn’t perfect, and some parts were over the top, but it made me laugh quite a bit.Damian Valdis Vesik is a thirty year old shop keeper, necromancer, and all around smart ass. I have to say, that I really liked the fact that he was a bit older than the norm in Urban Fantasy. The older you get the less you want to read about teenagers, and young twenty somethings. So Vesik spends his days in his shop with the three fairies that live in his Grandfather clock, and two cu sith puppies that love to use him as a squeaky toy. So it starts out with him getting a invitation to his sisters ex-best friend, and sisters ex-boyfriends wedding. Needless to say this doesn’t go over too well with the sister, who now being a vampire feels a bit blood thirsty. This was the part that had me a little squicked out, Damien offers to take care of it for her, and make the wedding memorable. There is a spoiler in my comments; I will let you decide if you want to check it out before reading this book. Now, Damien’s master shows up after he hasn’t heard from her in years with the bestest news of a group of extremely crazy vampires trying to raise a demon. After a few run ins with some possessed vampires, and a few vampire zombies, yes that’s right vampire zombies, Damien gets his ass handed to him, a lot.This was another refreshing part of the book, even though Damien has been a necromancer for years; he still has a ton learning to do. He is not the Billy Badass that snaps his fingers, and everything dies. Oh no, he gets his ass saved a lot by his fairy friends, his master, and once by a ghost panda. It was fun reading a long and trying to see how he was going to live to the end of this book. So even though there were a few gross things in this book, I still really enjoyed it. Damian is very sarcastic, and made me laugh a lot. So if you can deal with a lot of blood, and slightly skewed morals, you might just enjoy this book.
