This isn’t my normal read however I feel in love with the book and concept right from the start.
I loved the integration of the supernatural into the everyday life, most people unaware but it’s there all around them. The concept itself of death having an IT guy and needing a holiday was very enjoyable and original.
Making the main character a hitman makes him facinating, Buck has a well written backstory and his character arc was delightful to follow.
Good diversity and had every day problems shown without making it the whole plot point.
Overal an extremely enjoyable read and I’d recommend it to anyone who finds any of the above interesting.
