4.0 out of 5 starsAs Original As It Can Get
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on January 8, 2023
Wow I really enjoyed this! I can’t wait to start the second book.
There were many things I loved about this but the main ones are:
β€’ FMC is 34 with a regular job and regular problems.
She felt she was not considered model-esque and felt a lot of insecurity about it but also knew that her appearance was not what defined her. She took great pride in her craft and worked to be a good person.
As someone who is also 5’1” I understood a lot of her inner monologue about her body insecurities and feeling intimidated around others.
β€’ MMC is kind of a dink, but was never overtly mean to FMC and gave off genuine vibes of wanting her to be well without undermining her own abilities.
β€’No insta-love here!
β€’Unique world-building and an interesting plot.
β€’Fun secondary characters

Some things I didn’t love:
β€’ Pacing starts off fast, then kind of gets slower (but it is setting up the series so it’s forgivable)
That’s pretty much it. A solid start to this series.

I have enjoyed other books from this author but found this book pretty weak. As a writer, I consider Buroker to be a level above the commodity writers of a lot of the books on Kindle Unlimited. The weakness of this book is the plot which relies heavily on luck and coincidence and is just a string of events instead of being influenced by the protagonist.
I will probably treat this book as the first half of a proper book and check out the next book to see if the series improves.

I don’t know how she does it, but Lindsay Buroker keeps putting out series that are impossible to put down once started. I just finished re-reading the seven books of the Emporer’s Edge series, and wanted a change before going into the Republic series again. This was my change - also written by her - and it proved to be an excellent choice. I’m off to Book 2 now.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great beginning to this urban fantasy series
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on December 22, 2022

I am really enjoying this series, urban fantasy is my favorite genres so great to find a new series i love! Also, great title! i like the characters in this book, Matti is a down to earth, funny heroine, the hammer is awesome!, and the supporting characters are a great bunch. Love the world building, it's always great when a new fantasy world catches your interest and you can't wait to read more books in the series to find out more about this world/Universe the author has created (my only disappointment is that dragons seem to be jerks in this universe, but i digress). Great story, can't wait to get to the 2nd book, so i have to stop writing this review so i can download it, later!

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining new series
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on November 14, 2022

I'm a big fan of Buroker and her feisty heroines, so this new series is a real pleasure to read. I think Matti is great and her partners, Tinja and Abbas, are quite entertaining. And what's not to love about an elven assassin? There's so much potential for mayhem in her quest to find out what happened to her mother, and am curious to find out both if she's allowed to contact her father and how her relationship with her half-sister proceeds, since she denies Matti's dwarven heritage (and what happens when she can't!). I'm so looking forward to finding out what comes next!

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely worth reading.
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on November 13, 2022

WARNING: This book is nearly impossible to put down. Familiar characters and exciting new ones band together on a magical quest of epic proportions. A half-dwarf, a goblin, and an array of friends are just trying to make a living by flipping houses when an elven assassin arrives to help battle werewolves and orcs. Magic, mayhem, and monsters add spice to the mix and I promise you will love every word. Sarcasm and wit abound in this incredible new series.

First in another fantastic series from Lindsay Buroker. Matti is a wonderful new character and we get a few old characters as well. I had a hard time putting it down when it was time for me to go back to work.
