This set of books is a great deal- 7 books for 7.99 and a sneak peek at some really wonderful other books from the author.

This series of books start off a little slow but takes off after that. They hook you in with their characters. The mix of the cast is just right- a little quirky, but that makes them easy to remember from first introduction. Yes, Had is a strange one but I think he is the one that brings this odd group together and makes them work somehow, the peacekeeper. As the books go along, we gain a few more members to the group.

Some of the books are better than others, as all series go. Each has its own individual plot but there is a common backstory and another major plot running throughout the books that keep you reading from book to book, not wanting to put this set down. That's the fun to having them all to read back to back and that's the way a book lover really wants to read- who wants to leave their favorite characters at the end of a book only to have to wait months to years for the next installment? Here you have them all. The only problem though is that after having this huge set, when you do finally come to the end, it is even more disappointing than finishing a single good book. So hopefully (pretty please!) we may see more from this little group of misfit detectives.

On a side note, I was having problems with downloading some of the books that were supposed to have been automatically uploaded to the set. As suggested at the end of the book, I contacted the author. He was fabulous and answered right away, helping me solve my problem and get onto more happy reading. I love a friendly author. Thanks much, Mr. Hopkin! My next stop is your Darc Murders Collection. ( )
