What Angels Fear: A Sebastian St. Cyr Mystery by C.S. Harris
4.5
There was something in the writing style that kind of bothered me but I couldn't put my finger on it, so it loses a bit for that. I'm very compelled by the character of Sebastian, and by this setup of a series of mysteries that have Implications (whether our protagonist can be bothered to care or not). Also adored the quick loyalty and kindness forged between Tom and Sebastian. I love a scrappy street youth side character. This was a very solid book but I suspect with time either a) this series will improve just that bit more to be fantastic or b) it'll stay about the same and either way it's enjoyable.
Graphic: Death, Gore, and Rape
No one is raped on-page but the victim was assaulted and it is discussed repeatedly and often with detail.
