Can I just say that Jesse got dealt a crappy hand? He gets a call from Gail, a girl whom he spends High school pretty much in love with, He thinks she may want to have a little fun (after he helps her with a small problem) and he can go back to school and finish studying for his exam. He gets way more than he bargains for fighting ghouls, learning about hunters, Gail getting bit by a werewolf. It’s a bit too much for Jesse.

I liked this book, the action starts right from the beginning. I really like how Bamberg wrote Jesse and while I think he took everything a bit well (I would have freaked out way more) I still like him. It’s pretty believable for a book about the supernatural. Gail was just okay, more of a ‘shoot first than get details later’ which sometimes bothers me, but I didn’t hate her so that’s a point in her direction.

One thing I loved about the book is that I wasn’t bored. Bamberg did a great job in creating his world and making sure the action was there throughout the entire book.

some sex scenes - fairly likable characters although often a bit shallow - ok world building - good potential for more aggressive wb but unlikely to see that happen
overall ok - might read more by author

I received this book as an ebook giveaway. I am new to fantasy in a Mel Gibson world, and so I cannot compare it to other works. I found it enjoyable and very vivid. The character types were interesting. I was impressed by how well a first - person narrative could maintain such a long tale so well.

Bamberg could invite a greater YA audience to read it by removing some of the carnal scenes. The story simply does not need them - they do not add much to the enjoyment of his writing.

Lousy cover, but interesting, fun book! I listened to this one on audible, and the narration was ok, the voices for women were all the same, but otherwise not bad.
This is about time travel, and an adventure chase, it made me think of Die Hard a little bit
