Graveyard Dust by Barbara Hambly

4.0

I'm knocking this down to four stars this time around because, although the characters are as great as ever, the plot is as confusing as all heck.

Original review:

I'm enjoying this series so much that I currently don't want to read anything else.

SpoilerI was so pleased that Augustus Meyerling and his wife turned up again, well and happy, as positive trans characters aren't ten a penny, and even less so at the time this book was written. And I continue to have a lot of feelings about Ben and Rose and Hannibal as a found family. I will be devastated when Hannibal finally succumbs to TB, as it seems he must.

I am terrible at mystery novels as I find the actual mystery parts of them impossible to follow. I thought I was doing quite well with this one, but the Dr Yellowjack and the Coughlins part of the plot completely lost me until the end. Still, I'm very happy to read this series for the characters, the writing and the setting, and just be a bit baffled about who's doing what to who and why.
