The Detective by Jonathan L. Howard
3.0
"I would ask you not to lecture me on morality. I don't take it kindly. Besides, you say 'human being' as if it's something special. There are a lot of them about, you know, and few are worth the price of the calcium in their bones."
"Most of us don't measure a person's worth in calcium!"
"And perhaps that's why there's so much wrong in the world. Calcium's quite my favorite alkaline earth metal. It should be more highly regarded."
One thing I can guarantee about Johannes Cabal series is it will always manages to surprise you. Just like The Necromancer, I read the first chapter in The Detective, thought that I knew what to expect from the book, and it turned out to be something totally different. The nature of the story in this book is unlike the first book; I did enjoy the Necromancer more, but the Detective is just as fun and extremely funny. The mystery case was very well-done and as clever as the writing.
