“Hawk & Fisher” the first novel in the series opens to Isobel and Hawk Fisher, two City Guardsmen on their way to a slum. The powers that be have pulled the two from a child prostitution case and reassigned them to a missing woman case, believed to be a vampire kidnapping. It is not long before they recover the missing woman and report back asking for their next assignment. With their first case completed to everyone’s satisfaction, they are tasked with guarding a pro reformist Councilman. The Councilor is whiling his time at Sorcerer’s Gaunt’s house party, where some of the most prominent people in the city are in attendance.
For the two expert Council Guards this seems like a routine job until the unthinkable happens. While the guests are otherwise engaged, Gaunt works a spell that isolates the house and a murder is committed right under their noses. The novel is a well-written urban fantasy narrative that shows why Simon R. Green is one of the foremost fantasy and science fiction authors.
