Okay, I wasn't a huge fan of the first book, but I loved the ifrit so much I decided to go on with the series and get this book.

Mistake.

The ifrit is still cute. The story line was not so cute. The clues that pointed out what was going on were glaringly obvious. I kept thinking that I couldn't be right, that it couldn't be so easy to figure out. But I was right. It was that easy to figure out. I found myself waiting for the clueless "hero" to catch up. I mean, this book is written in the first person. So I only knew what he knew and I still got it.

I'm going to skip the rest of the series and just remember Lou the almost dog ifrit and his pet idjit fondly.

1/2 stars out of 5 because of the cute Lou.
