I just finished reading the second book, and look forward to getting the third.

The books so far have been fun. To me they are a bit like a western done in the urban-fantasy style. But I must admit to a few little bug bears: There is not much depth-to or sympathy-with the characters, Oberon is about the only one I gain any attachment too (and his personality is too cutesy to be very Wolfhound like, at least compared to the ones I've known). It is funny, or at least amusing, but I've not found too many laugh-out-loud moments - although I love the dedication to the first book.

All-up: Good fun, certainly worth buying and reading ... just not quite as "great" as I was hoping for after reading about the books and all the reviews here.
