A review by evavroslin
Eyes to See by Joseph Nassise
5.0
This book is absolutely my favourite urban fantasy of 2012, even though it came out in 2011. I'm a big fan of strong male leads who aren't just re-hashing what we've seen a million times before, whether it's the detective/PI who hunts supernatural things, the typical hunter of monsters, or the wise-cracking and snippy reluctant hero. Those are all well and good and I enjoy many of them, but Jeremiah Hunt is a unique lead, and an intensely vulnerable character but he doesn't come off as a whiny wuss, which is a difficult and delicate balance to maintain.
The world-building aspects with ghosts and all the types of spirits that exist are fantastic, and this series is the perfect "go-to" read after you've finished with Simon R. Green, the Dresden Files books by Jim Butcher, the Felix Castor series from Mike Carey, the Remy Chandler series from Tom Sniegoski, etc, and you're wondering what your next read should be.
