About The Lords of the West End A London Fantasy

"I'm supernatural, but only barely." This kicks off a suspenseful and original fantasy set in London. Bradan sells cool art and uses sorcery, audacity, and luck when things get tough, but they almost never do. He's got terrific friends including two phantoms, one who haunts his Jaguar sports car, and the other, a Victorian-era thief and his former lover. And then there's his wolf. Singing in a pop band and managing his crazy romantic life are as exciting as it gets - until Bradan stumbles into a blood feud between rival Fae factions. Bradan may be supernatural, but his enemies are lethally terrifying: an eerie Fae queen who Bradan offended will murder him unless a psychopathic Miami drug lord beats her to it. Bradan offended him too. Making things worse, the human and Fae realms don't play well together. Human vices and toxins are invading Faerie. As these worlds collide, catastrophe threatens both. Bradan will need sorcery, audacity, and luck to save himself, his friends, and the human and Fae worlds. The Lords of the West End belongs to a modern fantasy series including The Lords of Oblivion, The Lords of Powder, and The Lords of the Summer Season. Though the main character, Bradan, an almost immortal magician, and his companion, the wolf Tintagel, appear in all of these novels, each of the books is independent of the others and can be enjoyed on its own. Recent review from WS Bookclub (Instagram reviewer): "This is one of those books that is high on entertainment value. I can say with confidence that I have not read anything like this book at all. Bradan is one of those characters whose slightly slippery morals are delightful to read about. The cast around him is equally great, though. I quite liked Connie, the ghost who hung out in Bradan's car. The whole idea made me grin. The situations Bradan finds himself in are unique, to say the least. They're also wonderfully described. There's action aplenty, as well as a fair bit of relationship issues. It all manages to keep just the right tone, though, and the pacing is great. The Lords of the West End: A London Fantasy is just flat-out fun. Highly recommended."
