This was was something of an oddity, in that it is a mash-up in the vein of books like [b:Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter|7108001|Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter|Seth Grahame-Smith|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1291165397s/7108001.jpg|6596168], which takes an historical person and put them into some kind of supernatural setting. It works - just about - because [a:Robert Burns|75831|Robert Burns|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1209473267p2/75831.jpg] would have been surrounded by the supernatural in 18th Century Scotland, and it is just conceivable that he might have encountered something unworldly that led to some of his most famous poems. That his muse might turn out to be a red-haired female witch hunter is darkly amusing, and altogether this was a fun story, if a little slight.
