This gave me very strong "Neverwhere" by Neil Gaiman vibes, except this was more cohesive. I liked the mixture of folklore and how this was written as an urban sort of fantasy. That was great! However, I found myself getting bored a lot and my thoughts continuously drifted away. Maybe this style of book is just not for me. Still, there were moments I enjoyed.

A quick, interesting read that I would recommend to someone looking to try something new.
