Colin Hollinghead is a young man going nowhere fast. Working for his dad might have seemed like a good idea at the time, but starting at the bottom in the widget-making industry has somehow lost its appeal. And now the business is in trouble. At least his father has a plan to turn things round - a new work force that will improve profit margins and secure the company's future for eternity. The deal looks great on paper, but they do say that the devil is in the detail - and the old rogue certainly seems to be involved in some capacity. Colin needs help. Perhaps his new friend from J.W. Wells & Co. (Practical and Effective Magicians, Sorcerers and Supernatural Consultants) can help. Sparkling with wit and oozing charm, Tom Holt's new comic caper will delight his readers and prove once and for all that going to work can actually be hell.… (plus d'informations)

I'm not sure why I picked it up, and it's possible that there is some Christopher Moore-like paranormal stuff going on in the background that will eventually become interesting. I read for character, though, and there was nothing in the first few chapters to convince me that I wanted to get to know these guys. ( )

Kept reading it because I wanted to know where he was going with all of it.
Not going to search out any other books by him. Interesting concept and some very humorous lines, but story as a whole wasn't compelling. ( )

Interesting and fun book that is sort of a continuation of a series (but really closer to a shared world set of stories--think [a:Terry Pratchett|1654|Terry Pratchett|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1235562205p2/1654.jpg] DiscWorld series). The humor is definitely British--meaning more subtle and some references don't parse for me. The plot is ultimately very dense and may not be completely consistent, but that's OK the story makes enough sense to be enjoyable. ( )

Convoluted solutions continue. ( )

This one sort of dragged. The clueless mortal confronts confusing evil theme is being overdone. ( )
