I've read a number of Glen Cooks with Garett, PI. This one is the weakest. I don't like my PI's bumbling around looking for things randomly. Although in defense of the book, it didn't get my full attention, and I read it at night when I was really sleepy. (

Wonderfully light hearted: I read the Garret series earlier in my life and loved them. I am starting reading them all over by reading his newest in the series. There is wonderful humor in his writing of this series.

Book description

There are some new gods in the town of TunFaire, but temple real estate on the Street of Dreams is at a premium. So the big gods on the block issued a challenge-find the "key" to the one temple still available. When two rival pantheons try to hire Garrett, he knows he is in for it...
