Ever since his fiancee, Sarai, went missing, Colin Fisher has been wandering around, at a loss. He wants to find out what happened to her, and all he knows is it has something to do with his copy of The Necronomicon, the voice in his head, and a locked room. Now his father is dying and Colin is headed to see him one last time. But, on the way there, he gets involved in the aftermath of a murder. As a drifter, he is of course the one the police suspect. But, things take a turn for the bizarre when he is hired as a corporate wizard by Valente International, to find out who or what is murdering the company's employees. He is quickly drawn into the mystery and wonders if his wizarding skills will be up to par to find and take care of the killer. Will he find out before it's too late? Or will he be another casualty in the war?

I must say upfront, this book exceeded my expectations! It was a thrill from beginning to end. Excellent writing, a wonderful plot, and a wonderful cast of characters kept me up longer at night than I wanted to see what was going to happen to Colin. The way little bits of information about Colin's past and the mystery of his fiancee were woven into the plot was masterful, and the way the stories wove together made a very interesting read, one, like I said, that was hard to put down. The only thing that bothered me a little, and it was just a little, was how the mystery of the killings was solved a little early and there was still part of the book to go. But that was quickly put aside when I realized why. If this series continues on this same greatness, this author will quickly become an auto-buy while I'm waiting for Jim Butcher, Jim C. Hines, Kelley Armstrong, etc. and probably take his side by the others. This is an author to watch, and I'm glad I'll have been there from the beginning. Very highly recommend!
