This book handled the perspective switches better than the first! I really enjoyed it, a very good middle book that makes me excited for the third.

Trailer Park Trickster basically picks up right where we left off in White Trash Warlock – with the newly minted warlock Adam Binder rushing home to Guthrie, knowing that something bad has befallen his beloved great-aunt Sue. Sure enough, when he gets there, Sue is gone. Her granddaughter will only tell Adam that she had a heart attack, and demands that Adam leave her and her mother alone. Seconds later, Sue’s trailer explodes, and Adam knows that the mysterious dark druid he’s been hunting down is likely to blame.

The world-building in this series is impressive. I really like the magic system and the tarot-based elven hierarchy. The author’s descriptions are really fantastic, and I especially like the descriptions of the magical world that’s parallel to ours, as well as Adam’s descriptions of emotions as colors. I also liked the fragile, burgeoning trust between Adam and his family. He is still very wary of them, and rightfully so - but there are signs of healing.

I’m glad we get Vic’s POV in this one. I liked him well enough in the first one but I felt like I didn’t really connect to him that well. He just seemed kind of bland-ish, honestly. We get more of his thoughts, his motivations, and his personality in this book through the POV sections.

I received a copy of this ebook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
