I find something I love and I keep coming back for more. Nothing I haven't read before, but again, that's not an issue for me because I love these types of stories and I'm a creature of repetition. This is an action and adventure story with a heist and side quests. Imagine InuYasha, except in the world of One Piece and with Luffy's appetite. Honestly, being a manga/comic lover, this book felt reminiscent of that style, just without the pictures. I was laughing so much throughout this book. It was easy to read and understand and the lines of sarcasm and humor were delivered with perfect timing. Remember when I mentioned earlier he was once part of the Order of the Educators? Yeah.so the only way to officially get out is by being released.permanently. I believe that was the author's intent - Akrab felt secluded, which I believe will piece in to a greater plotline of the series in regards to Varcade. The entirety of the story takes place in or around the outskirts of Akrab. I have no strong feelings regarding the atmosphere or setting. Remember when everyone laughed and called Steve the babysitter in Stranger Things? THAT'S Edghar.lol Edghar is the former Spymaster of Akrab who is recruiting criminals *cough* assassins *cough* to help save Akrab from its Bone Lord, Clea. His training for this Order gave him special abilities, which is why he is first on Edghar's list to join his crew. Varcade is a milk drinking sword-for-hire that was once a living tool of justice for the Order of the Educators. While there is a group involved, readers spend the majority of time tagging alongside Varcade, Edghar and Clea. That doesn't bother me at all, it makes these characters feel familiar to me. Now, do some of them remind me of other characters I've met in other stories? Sure. This band of misfits are absolutely unforgettable. I did express interest in reading THE CREW on social media and the author then asked if I'd like a copy in consideration for review, to which I graciously accepted. Bizarre magical powers, trouble brewing between the human and demon populations and a heist - I was allll in for this adventure! I had to investigate further, because it looked like one of my favorite anime characters on the front cover - InuYasha! Turns out, its about a guy who is putting together a team of assassins to put things right and save the city of Akrab.
