I liked it but i listened to it as an audio book which I don’t think I recommend. The story was hard to follow and I had to really actively use my brain while listening. It wasn’t hugely engaging. I really enjoyed the main characters. Also 0 romance which I usually like at least a little.

Holy Hell. 
What an incredible book. 
It’s witty, it’s dark, it’s bloody and I’m absolutely in love. 
It was made even better with Moira Quirk lending voice to this dynamic story. 
I will treasure this first read forever.
