I really enjoyed this story. It was fun, the characters were likable, and there was a good bit of action. It was well written and had a good flow (which is not always something you get in a debut work). I’m looking forward to reading more in the series.
I’m glad I stumbled onto this series. It’s fun and well-written with likable characters. In this second installment, Temperance runs into a little diversion on her way to track down the daemon, Belial. She ends up playing detective in a small town filled with some shady characters.
This book is a good bit longer than the first story. We get to learn a lot about Temperance’s family and her past. If you enjoyed the first story, you’ll definitely want to pick this one up.

Tons of fun, well worth a read
This was an excellently fun Western-style fantasy. My first note after beginning the book was “Wild, wild west with daemon-hunting witch and talking horse, love it already”. And I continued loving it throughout. The book is pretty short, which makes it a very quick read. It is a self-contained “episode”, but more books in the series are on the way and there is an grander unresolved plot line that (I assume) will be continued throughout the series. The characters were interesting, and felt distinct and real. We follow Temperance Whiteoak on a short journey to escort a Federation marshal and his sorcerer prisoner to a trial. I didn’t feel that the world-building was terribly detailed in this book, but it also never made me feel lost or like I was missing information in a detrimental way. We get bits and pieces of the world as Temperance talks about or reflects upon her personal past, or in conversations with the other characters.
There are several pieces of art included at the end of chapters, and they’re really cool. I really enjoyed those, and it’s not something I see often in fantasy books.
If you like Westerns, this is for you. If you’re looking for a quick adventure that’s very easy to get into, check this one out. This was all-around very quick and fun, and I’d recommend it to just about anyone, honestly.… (lisätietoja)

While the storyline is a bit cliche, even for a western, the characters, the lore, and the magic really made it worthwhile and fun. I do believe I would take another ride with Temperance and Astor hunting daemons on the open plain (and hope the Marshal shows up).… (lisätietoja)
