How do you walk when you have the universe at your beck and call? Different, you walk different. So, long-time readers wanna know: will Esper ever walk like a magician again?

Mercy For Hire Book 6 shines with the easy inter-character banter that makes this whole series a pleasure to read. The action, though, takes a different route this time, with an extended period of down time during act two. I won't say why, I'll just say that it's not boring, not at all.

The questions that the book ultimately explores have less to do with the wizard walk, more to do with whether its possible to strike a blow against violent criminals without becoming one.

Recommended for fans of Morin's Black Ocean series, Payback (1999), puns, and kick-ass women.

Our heroes continue their crusade against the cult!
The more I read of this series, the more I love it! I really liked the way Mr. Morin has Esper dealing with the effects of book 4. One of the things I've really enjoyed is how well linked each story is. These books don't feel like just a series of stories, but like I'm actually watching someone's life unfold.
Wesley Wesley has been a great addition! He was so much fun in Sunshine of Your Cult, it's awesome having him along and learning a bit more about him. I look forward to more with him!
If you haven't started this series you should! It just gets better!
