It doesn't matter what Ari Marmell writes – whether the fantasy is YA or not – it's gripping and intense. The only difference is the swearing and amount of blood.

Still reeling from the events of the first volume – the death of a close friend, a showdown with a demon, a burgeoning friendship with an up and coming star in the Guard (not a good move for a professional thief)– this adventure will push Widdershins even further and harder and will keep the pages turning ‘til the jaw-dropping end.

Marmell has created a rich and elaborate world for Widdershins – the magic/mythology system, the thieves' guild, it's a soil that many volumes could be grown in, I certainly hope they do.
