5.0
Prof Croft has been practicing…and practicing…and practicing. Is he as good as he could be? No. Is he getting better? Yes. This action packed book is filled with spells, casters, demons and the big question that foreshadows the story? Is New York big enough for two wizards? Hard to know unless you read the book.
Black Luck doesn’t have any sex in it. Lots of death of poor unsuspecting regular folk but not too gory- just sad. Everson is having a hard time with this case. There is a new wizard in town and Everson is a tad jealous of the new showman. This story is more about Everson’s growth as a person instead of a wizard. He’s got work to do in his professional life as well as his personal one.
I really enjoy Everson’s world. I think my favorite character is Tabitha, the talking cat. She doesn’t have any golden insight or does she assist in any major way. She’s just a talking cat and that’s enough. Now, if you want me to name my favorite part of the book, it’d have to be when Everson’s partner calls to the murderous imps and makes them mind. She should be called the Imp Caller. Or the Creature Tamer. Or Dark World Whisperer. Any of those would be accurate.
I enjoyed seeing a glimpse inside of Everson and Ricki Vega’s new life. They are trying hard to stay together but with the pressures of the job it’s proving difficult. I’m always a sucker for a good romance. There isn’t much romance in this story, but I enjoyed what there was.
Black Luck? 5 stars for sure.
