A good sequel but...

Really LOVED the first book but this one falls a little flat story-wise. Where the first book slowly introduced characters and supernatural elements, this one seems to do the opposite by throwing several different things together all at once. The result is a complete mess with the plot scattered all over the place. The main story has to do with mysterious poisonings, but on top of trying to figure out the poisonings, Tony has to deal with trolls, demons, witches, a priest, a wizard, a were-beagle, a love interest, a new puppy, rival detective, pixies, the seelie and unseelie queens and their courts, etc...In a 5 hour story. It does mostly tie up in the end and the character interactions are entertaining, especially with Frankie the MVP. The recording itself also isn't the best quality since there are a couple places where the audio overlaps. At first I thought it was intentional as characters talking over each other but the 2nd and 3rd times it happened, you can tell something got edited wrong.
