Über diesen Titel

Fetch Philips has nothing left to believe in. Which is why he's surprised when the people of Sunder City start to believe in him....

Rumour has it that Fetch is only one who can bring magic back into the world. So when a man is murdered in a way that can only be explained as magical, Fetch is brought in on the case. A case which just might unearth things best left buried....

This sequel to The Last Smile in Sunder City follows the adventures of Fetch Phillips - a character destined to be loved by fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Jim Butcher and Terry Pratchett's Discworld.

In this one I loved the case itself more than in the first book, because we are off to a brisk start, with a good amount of character and world building out of the way. The story has a nice balance between the case to be investigated and the overarching story.
The writing is extra special with wonderfully unique turn of phrases and use of descriptive words, which highlight the underlining emotion and meaning. The theme of industrialism, which runs through the whole book, gets a good amount of examination though the different characters Fetch encounters. The moral conflicts and the character's indecisiveness on some of the issues presented, can be frustrating sometimes, but it seems like this was the writers' intention.
The narrator does a fantastic job of infusing Fetches voice with melancholy, heartbreak and tension, which lends itself to the introspective nature of the book.

Even better the second time around
