Hard Spell by Justin Gustainis

2.0

If I had to take a guess, I would say that the author was aiming for the little-known sub-genre of hard-boiled supernatural detective exposition. At least for the exposition part he is succeeding. So, if you're into loads and loads of explanations with more than a dash of cliches, this is the book for you. Me, I did not like this book. But I somehow still cared enough to finish it, so that's something. In sum it's an OK book. If you can find it for free (I think I got it in some ebook bundle), it's fine. It's like the book equivalent of styrofoam balls. Used to bolster up the more worthy stuff in a package.
