Description
Alek Fitz is a reaper, a collection agent who works for the supernatural elements of the world, tracking down debtors and solving problems for clients as diverse as the Lords of Hell, vampires, Haitian loa, and goblins. He’s even worked for the Tooth Fairy on occasion. Based out of Cleveland, Ohio, Alek is the best in the game. As a literal slave to his job, he doesn’t have a choice.
When Death comes looking for someone to track down a thief, Alek is flung into a mess of vengeful undead, supernatural bureaucracy, and a fledgling imp war. As the consequences of failure become dire, he has few leads, and the clock is ticking. Only with the help of his friend Maggie - an ancient djinn with a complex past - can he hope to recover the stolen property, save the world, and just maybe wring a favor out of the Great Constant himself.
It’s a hell of a job, but somebody’s got to do it...

Everything I wanted it to be
I didn't know I needed this! All of a sudden it was over. Please kind internet strangers, support it so we can have book 2.
It's a strong urban fantasy. The rules and structure of the world are quickly and efficiently set up and right away you get a sense for who the lead character is and what his struggles are. Same for his companion. The writing does a good job showing instead of telling. Alek has an interesting non-detective, non-private investigator, non-shop owner job that nicely sets up enjoyable plot and character dynamics and feels unique. This is a fast paced book and provides many interesting background details about the characters and world that are satisfying as they are but intriguing enough to hope they'll be explored further in future books.
Luke Daniels does more with the character voices than I've heard elsewhere. Initially it was annoying but that didn't last and I quickly came to appreciate his ability to voice each character in such a distinct way. For me it was on par with James Marsters read of the Dresden Files audiobooks.
It is a complete feeling story. Saying "all of a sudden it was over" above was because I liked it enough to wish it were longer, but there is a nice arc that ends in a satisfying way. I can't wait to see what happens next to Alek and Maggie.

Fast-paced and fun
Short and sweet, it hit the mark perfectly. And the narrator is obviously having a blast performing all the raspy voices.
