In the year 2020, Honoré Lechasseur and Emily Blandish find themselves thrown into a mystery as an ice spirit wreaks havoc during the Kyoto’s Gion Festival, and a haunted funhouse proves to contain more than just paper lanterns and wax dummies.
But what does all this have to do with the elegant owner of the Hide and Chic fashion chain… and to the legendary Japanese fox-spirits, the Kitsune?
Part mystery, part detective story, part dark fantasy, part science fiction … original adventures in time and space.
I will admit that it has been some time since I have read any of the the Time Hunter series - the loosely based spin off Doctor Who series from Telos (am not sure if they still have the license to use Doctor Who any more or not).
The series consists of a series of novellas all covering different times and places as the two time sensitives embark on a series of adventures. I will not give too much away (you know me and spoilers) just that either this book is where the series finally finds its pace or John Paul Catton can weave a great story as for me this was the first book I really got drawn in to.
Each book is written by a different author although I do believe there is a story arc to the series this book is pretty much a standalone (or at least I think it is).
