Adair Finch is the most powerful warlock in the world, and one of the best private investigators for hire.

He has dealt with corporate vampires, murderous werewolves, and even fae royalty. Everything was perfect until he lost one case—the case where he also lost his brother.

So Finch retired. From magic. From PI work. From everything.

Bree Blackstone, a twelve-year-old witch, doesn’t know or care about any of that except Finch’s reputation. In the middle of the night, she bangs on Finch’s door. Her mother has been murdered, and now the assassin is after Bree as well.

Reluctantly, Finch agrees to help, only to discover something sinister has been brewing in town while he ignored the world… He’ll need to dust off all his old skills and magic before it’s too late.

Nicely done! This is a detective novel with magic splashed in for good measure.

It took some time to pickup but when it did it was a wild ride.

I'm looking forward to the next one. I can see lots of potential with the characters and world setup here

I simply love everything about this new release, characters, setting, pase, everything is just sublime, and I hope Shami will continue evolving this new universe of hers. It's crazy how many well written titles she is able to release every year. I can now safely say I have found my new favorite auther. Oh! And if you don't already, you will absolutely love pigeons after reading this book!!!!

This is the latest new one from Shami Stovall. Quoted as Groundhog Day meets the Dresden Files, it has its own magic and story world that should fire the young and old alikes, imagination. This is a fast and at the same time slow story that repeats a lot, but it is a great story with believable magic and situations. 5 Stars and recommended for those who like magical fantasy. The situations are believable and there are some amazing get outs that those who video game (poorly for some of us) will understand.

Just finished Save Scumming Warlock by Shami Stovall (Time-Marked Warlock for the pedantically inclined): it’s honestly one of the best series starts I’ve read recently
- great characters that don’t sound cliché
- characters do things because they have their own believable motivations rather than because they’re XYZ stereotype
- the magic system is well thought through and not too intrusive
- the exposition is given very believably (characters ask each other questions in a plausible manner and the exposition comes via answers that are appropriate to the situation)
- the best implementation of an animal companion I’ve read since the Assassin trilogy by Robin Hobb
- the MC is the classic lone male asshole detective but gets called out on it quite a bit and doesn’t get a free pass

Overall this rates significantly higher than Dresden for me, and I’m as excited about the rest of the series as I am about Rivers of London

Edit: the only jarring part is the naivety which is used to characterise the police, with the classic “good guys VS bad apples” view, which in 2024 feels like should have been left behind by now

Very solid urban fantasy series start!
