Cursed by Benedict Jacka

5.0

Alex Verus returns with old friends and new enemies in this second book of the ALEX VERUS series, battling corrupt mages and trying to dodge the dangers of a cursed object.

I absolutely love Alex. He's such a good guy, it's impossible not to root for him. His relationships with Luna, Starbreeze, and Arachne are also incredibly endearing, which keeps him high on my list of favourite urban fantasy protagonists.

The story is a ton of fun with all the plot lines and challenges converging at a solid pace. The writing is witty and the world building is easy to follow. I'm a hug fan of this series and can't wait for the next adventure!
