A review by annarella
Ragged by Christopher Irvin

5.0

This is quite an unusual and original fantasy, it's not the first thriller/mystery that features animals as main characters but it's surely the only i read that could be classified as a noir or hard boiled.
You can feel the influence of writers like Hammett or Chandler and of classic fantasy writers.
There's violence, there's sad moments but there's also lighter and witty parts.
it isn't a long story and it kept me turning pages.
I loved Cal and loved the well developed characters and the plot.
I'm curious about future books by this author.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
