I find I have read this before, although not since buying the ebook, I think, One or two scenes and images stayed with me, but not the overall story.

Pretty good. An enjoyable fantasy set in the present day (when written - near past now). Certainly a different mythology to most fantasy.

Next: A Touch of Night by Sarah A. Hoyt and Sofie Skapski

This is pretty much Jane Austen fantasy fan-fic. It's been tidied up a little for this edition, and an extra sub-plot added. Alas, although I'm enjoying the story (Pride and Prejudice set in Hoyt's "Magical British Empire" universe), the cover and formatting of this edition leave something to be desired.

I've gone in and fixed up the formatting for my own copy, and hopefully the author and publishing groups will get the formatting on the official version sorted before too long.
