Will I love Titanshade?

Carter is your typical noir detective—cynical and staring down a rocks glass. But Titanshade is far from a standard city. It’s gritty and brimming with all kinds of characters from those you think you know to new species whose spilled guts smell like cinnamon. I’m particularly fond of the blood magic readings. And when Carter is backed into a corner, this hardboiled dick may surprise you.

Take one look at the cover and you’ll know if this book is for you. Somewhere between fantasy and retro 70s sci-fi is this incredible detective-noir following a prickly disco-hating antihero and his mandible-faced new rookie. Full of all the dredge-scouring and socialite-snobbery of any good homicide whodunnit, Titanshade also features dangerous magic that is pivotal in a major action sequence that has stuck with me since I first read it. And yes, this one has a couple of follow-up books if you want to revisit the world (which you will).
