Fantasy

Sharon Li abruptly finds out she is a shaman, and what's a shaman to do but start a self help group for misfit creatures of magic. And if that wasn't enough to get your attention, London's spirits are being taken. Now the Midnight Mayor, yes fans, you heard me right, is commanding her to save London. She won't do it alone, however. Sharon is accompanied by the misfits from her quirky group, Magical Anonymous. Griffin writes flawed, sometimes hilariously so, and human (but not really human) characters that are relatable but can also be tough as nails. Her gorgeous, unique and intricate atmosphere is another strong point in her stories. In STRAY SOULS her use of changing points of view is fantastic as she gives the characters their own turns to show off their stuff. Sharon has a temper hiding just beneath the surface that is let out when provoked. Shea is a character that grew on me as her fire ignited. The world Griffin has built is elaborate and believable, even with the urban fantasy elements of vampires, trolls and banshees, to name a few. Her characters are the heart of this book with their riveting and believable human characteristics; they truly are delightful. Those who are familiar with her Matthew Swift stories will be excited to see that he was incorporated into this book, as well.
