Dragons? Bring them on....

Story
Conrad Clarke, former RAF pilot and alleged gangster, gets a text – and a visit – from The Allfather. Odin has a challenge for Conrad: Sign up to protect England from wild magick and get a commission in the King’s Watch. All he has to do is find a missing witch. Simple. Conrad never could resist a challenge. Before you can say “Ragnarok”, he’s plunged into a world of gods, mages, witches, dwarves, and one very aggressive giant mole.

A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), The Stranger Times is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable. At least that's their pitch. The reality is rather less auspicious. Their editor is a drunken, foul-tempered and foul-mouthed husk of a man who thinks little of the publication he edits. His staff are a ragtag group of misfits. And as for the assistant editor...well, that job is a revolving door - and it has just revolved to reveal Hannah Willis, who's got problems of her own.

When she stumbles upon a diary that suggests she's descended from magicians, she's skeptical. After all, magicians are special, and she's just an ordinary woman who loves books. She seeks answers from a member of the most prominent family of magicians, but she quickly learns that finding the truth won't be easy, especially when he turns out to be as artless as her, and more compelling and dangerous than books.

The Case of the Canterfell Codicil is a classic, cozy, locked-room mystery written in the style of an homage to PG Wodehouse.

Rotherweird is a twisted, arcane murder-mystery with shades of Deborah Harkness, Hope Mirrlees and Ben Aaronovitch, Mervyn Peake and Edward Gorey at their disturbing best. The town of Rotherweird stands alone - there are no guidebooks, despite the fascinating and diverse architectural styles cramming the narrow streets, the avant-garde science and offbeat customs. Cast adrift from the rest of England by Elizabeth I, Rotherweird's independence is subject to one disturbing condition: nobody, but nobody, studies the town or its history.

Meet Jack Irish, criminal lawyer, debt collector, football lover, turf watcher, trainee cabinetmaker, and the best Australian crime character we've seen in years. When Jack receives a puzzling message from a jailed ex-client, he's too deep in misery over Fitzroy's latest loss to take much notice. Next thing Jack knows, the ex-client's dead and he's been drawn into a life-threatening investigation involving high-level corruption, dark sexual secrets, shonky property deals and murder.

It’s amazing what bodily injury can do for a man. A fall from a racehorse left brilliant jockey Sid Halley dangerously depressed, with a wrecked hand and the need for a new career. It was a bullet wound that helped him find one.

Don’t miss the first novel in a gripping series featuring DI Clare Mackay, perfect for fans of Alex Gray, D. S. Butler and Rachel Amphlett. On the night of a wedding celebration, one guest meets a grisly end when he’s killed in a hit-and-run. A card bearing the number ‘five’ has been placed on the victim’s chest. DI Clare Mackay, who recently moved to join the St Andrews force, leads the investigation. The following night another victim is struck down and a number ‘four’ card is at the scene.

Squadron Leader Clarke returns!
In a way, this is the second half of "The Thirteenth Witch," but it's a testament to the author's skill that either book is excellent as a stand alone work. They are each complete stories with satisfying endings. In this book, the story picks up with Conrad Clarke having finished his entrance test as it were, and starting as an official member of the King's Watch. We meet up again with Lord Mayor of Moles, Vicky, the Boss, Mina, and others, as Clarke has to deal with new developments in the world of magik. These are great stories in the written form, but Ciaran Saward's voice really brings them alive.

More please
I am thrilled to find another series of books to enjoy. The narration is on point and the main character is just so enjoyable with his hard outer shell and his inner heart of gold. Please Audible bring us more. I want the whole series as soon as I can afford them.

Another fun read.
Installment #2 is in all,ways an improvement over its predecessor. Less cliched than #1. Much more cleanly written and edited (none of the unprofessional typos and the like common to independently published books seen in the the 13th Witch). The author seems to be settling in and finding a more comfortable voice and relationship with his characters. The series is never going to achieve any measure of profundity, but neither does it aspire to that. It’s an enjoyable urban fantasy with an interesting, well-thought-out and relatively original system of magic. The protagonist may be boilerplate noir and slightly too full of himself, but he has charm, is increasingly surrounded by a likable supporting cast, and even the Ex machinae interventions (literally by one or more gods) are inoffensive, given the active roles played by the gods in the evolving storyline.
These books aren’t going to change your life, but they are quite pleasant light reading and Book #2 continued to build up the unanswered, slowly developing back-story/“conspiracy” that, in aggregate, left me wanting to see how the characters progress in their lives and to see the back-stories with their mysteries reveled in cute installments. Will definitely read more of them when I’m craving a fun and easy read (I.e. NOT because my life will be incomplete without learning all the answers).
