So this review is only about that story.I loved it, but at the same time I was left wanting more. Much More. The mystery part was really interesting and I ...
A collection of stories by mostly well-known authors, purportedly all detectives in urban fantasy stories. In actual fact, many of these stories are not set anywhere near cities, several have no magical or supernatural elements, and at least two are neither urban nor fantasy. So I'm not actually su...
