Hounacier by Seth Skorkowsky

5.0

Hounancier is my favorite of the books so far (Damoren, Hounancier and Ibenus). The book takes place in New Orleans and follows Hounancier's current protector, Malcolm. Malcom is called home after his mentor is found murdered, and he returns to catch the killer while facing down the demons that live in the city.
I loved getting to learn about the Voodoo culture in New Orleans and Skorkowsky did an excellent job of weaving it into Malcom's story as both a Houngan and a Valducan knight. Hounacier's story isn't perfectly black and white which added a lot of depth and grit to the story, and to me, made it more interesting than the story of Damoren. Since a lot of the world building was completed in the first book, Hounacier can get deep, and it gets deep and dark quick.
