Another crazy adventure for The Stranger Times crew. Stella’s power is growing and as she tries to be a normal university student, one night on her way home a man falls out of the sky in front of her. The founders believe she is responsible and needs to be controlled, so her colleagues at The Stranger Times investigate what is happening and the usual shenanigans ensue. 

Spiked gear, grave robbing, immortal gnomes, killer cats, judgement day, a bitter ex rock star and more! Another crazy day for the newspaper gang, I love these books, they are funny, irreverent and an absolutely joy to read. 

Someone is pushing powers and stealing the recently deceased, and poor Banecroft is haunted by a denizen of hell sent to take him to atone for his sins against the spirit world, although, he probably deserves it. Ox and Reggie are arguing as usual, Hannah is trying to keep calm in the face of her childhood crush, Grace is feeding up a ghoul and Stella still doesn’t know who or what she is! Full of insane twists and turns as usual but always with the underlying message of found family, loved it!

I do not know how to rate this book, I will probably come back and write a more detailed review. But one thing said, if you enjoyed the last 3 books, you will also enjoy this one.
