I am officially a fan of Craig Schaefer after this, Book #2, of his Harmony Black series. To be honest, fantasy isn't my usual genre and even less so any "dark fantasy" which is what Mr Schaefer is shown to be an author of on his own website. I discovered the first book via BookBub and if any of you have signed up for BookBub, you know how very brief the blurb is in each email. Whoever wrote the one for Book 1 did so in a way that drew my attention, so I bought it and when I was done, I was ready for book 2.It's never fun to discover a new(ish) author (he's got two other more established series which I have yet to explore) when he or she is at the start of their career or a new series, but Craig Schaefer made the second book well worth the wait. You'd think that four disparate individuals would not work well together, but they play off each other's strengths while not entirely ignoring their weaknesses. I enjoy that some issues don't get completely resolved, so there's this undercurrent that keeps flowing while each case is solved. Always makes for interesting plot twists when the characters have to juggle more than just the case at hand. I really look forward to Book 3, which is in the works.
