Stumbled across this because bookshop.org recommended a later book in this series, and it is GOOD. I read it pretty much in one night. (Sorry, T. Kingfisher, I know it took a lot longer to write it.)

The character of Alex Easton is pretty cool, and I like the fact that ka has a touch of PTSD the same as Dr. Denton, although the sources might be a bit different (both acquired in war, though, so maybe some commonalities?).

Seems like Halloween season is a good time to be reading this.
