Bateham delivers a vibrant tale that merges the gritty realism of Chicago reporting with high-stakes occult warfare. The narrative excels in establishing a clear dynamic between scientific rationality and supernatural force, embodied by Doctor Stonefish’s shamanic rituals and Masters’ druidic powers. While the plot relies on familiar tropes of good versus evil, the specific combination of psychic brothers and wizard students adds a layer of tactical depth to the conflict against The Lord of Darkness. This book suits readers who prefer active heroism over atmospheric dread. It is best appreciated by those seeking straightforward supernatural adventure where magic systems are integral to the plot's progression and resolution.
