As soon as I found out this book had a demon-possessed chicken in it, I knew this book was for me. 

It did not disappoint. 

I LOVE this book. I want more, I want sequels and prequels and spin-offs. I want a book dedicated to bonedog. I want a book about Finder. I want more on Anges and the dust wife. I just want more! 

A dark fantasy with a romantic sub plot. This book held everything I wanted and left me yearning for more. 

If the demon-possessed chicken isn't enough to pull you in, maybe this will

"Yes. Agnes, will you pass me my teacup? It seems that I am about to die, and I would like more tea"

These are words that I need to say on my deathbed. 

"You are an absolute grump and so is your chicken."

I mean. Need I say more?
