I didn't like this one as much as I liked the first one, but it was still pretty good!

Agencies within agencies, rainbow-haired pyromancers, black-bag mercenaries, rogue cops, spaceships, and eveil-magic Nazi scientists, all come together to around a master plan to bring a space-god home to eat Earth! It's 24 meets X-Files meets Man in the High Castle, dosed on eight kinds of weird magic.

And I love it.

Nice follow-up to the first book. I really love these characters and am invested in their adventures. I'm not typically a fan of urban fantasy, so that's saying something.

I'm always been kind of a sucker for "secret occult police" books. This one fit just fine.

This series just keeps getting better!

Red Knight Falling was about a mysterious satellite that is falling back to Earth. Well, have no fear guys because Harmony and her team are on this shit. Well.. once they figure out what the hell they are looking for and why the hell they are looking for it. Oh, and just to make it even more exciting.. there are other people looking for this thing as well.

I love Harmony so much! Her friendship with Jesse basically brings sunshine into my dull life at work. I pretty much zoomed through this audio and then took my sweet time coming up with comments and then sort of just forgot about this review. Oops! Well, hopefully I can do this book justice because it was amazing! I was highly entertained the entire time and basically on the edge of my seat (whether it was from being excited and wanting to know what was going to happen next in my audio book or I just had to pee... badly).

Loved everyone in this book.. but Micky.. Mickey? I don't know how to spell the crazy psychotic girls name but it's that. She was so weird. Her accent probably made her more crazy than she was. I was always suspicious of her and her "Death" in the first book.. but then wasn't really surprised when she randomly showed up in the book as the villain. She was a good villain I just felt so bad for Kevin. Thank god Jesse kicked her ass - over and over again.

Besides that, I loved that Cody tagged a long for a little of this book. Okay, a lot more than a little. BUT THAT ENDING THOUGH. I'm shook. He better come back to my girl Harmony.. or we are going to have some major problems buddy!

Then the epilogue blew my mind and of course got me hooked on the next book. I haven't even started that audio and I already know I'm going to love it too!!

Overall, I loved this book. I was never bored and I also never thought the pacing was slow. Loved the new mystery and now I'm wondering what the hell Harmony and her scooby gang are in for in the next book. Bring it on!

Dear Harmony, and Harmony's Self-Righteousness:



The knowledge that the Space Thing is in fact
Spoilerthe King of Silence
was good stuff, but something tells me it won't stay out there forever, even with
Spoilerthe satellite running interference
. I liked getting to see Kevin's character development. But overall, this team is so haphazard in their execution that it makes me shudder. The judgmental attitudes of this team (ahem, Harmony and Jessie) drive me up a wall. Getting that very "We are authority figures and thus above the law and any type of common sense" vibe again.

As usual, the nods to various characters in Dan's world cheered me up.

Much Better

This book was 10x better then the first because of how the characters backstories were explored a little deeper, and we got a bigger sense of the "family" that is Vigilant Lock.
