Critics Review

Crilley’s magical world ain’t kid stuff. If you like your spellcraft dangerous, exhilarating, and chillingly double-edged, look no further. - Becky Chambers, author of THE LONG WAY TO A SMALL, ANGRY PLANET on POISON CITY

Steeped in sun, sin, whiskey and magic, I devoured Poison City. Rarely has policing the impending apocalypse been so awesome. Sequel now! - Claire North on POISON CITY

A sarcastic, demon-fighting cop with magic dragon tattoos and an alcoholic talking dog as a sidekick… Poison City is everything you never knew you wanted in a book. Buy it now! - Krysten Ritter on POISON CITY

An early Tarantino version of an urban fantasy… The war is coming, says the cover; given this first battle, it’s going to be one hell of a ride. - Starburst on POISON CITY
