The Story
There is a girl named Abby Sinclair.. during the day she runs a regular used bookstore, at night she manages a magical marketplace. She is a touchstone to a faery princess from the OtherWorld. When people in Abbys world start disappearing the dark myseterious incubus Brystion shows up asking abby for help to find the missing. Off goes the race to save the missing!

Thoughts
This book has an INSANE amount of vivid imagery. Pang truly is a natural story teller. it was hard to put the book down I just wanted to know what was going on! Pang adds in poetry like a master. While once in a while the story got a little consuming because she hints at convoluted things not really being clear, but it just added to the charm of the story. I so badly wanted to figure what where the story was going, it fueled the pace of this book. I can't wait till the next to see where the author takes the characters. She left several story threads to pick up in the next book. This was unique and visually stunning! Great UF book!

A Brush of Darkness Abby Sinclair Book 1 Allison Pang 9781439198322 Books Reviews

This was a good start to a new urban fantasy. This book was entertaining and action-packed. The plot had a nice mysterious feel, in addition to plenty of humor. There were plenty of times where I LMFAO. This book was a fun and fast read.

The story had a cache of preternaturals, which included unicorns, fae, vampires, angels, werewolves, demons and plain ole humans. The story was contemporary, creative and original. Unfortunately, this story was overly contemporary at times, with farfetched subplots and too many fantastical beings and situations that all accumulated into a huge pile of asininities and absurdities. Almost like the author had an urban fantasy checklist and was trying to cover all her basis.

I often found Abby to be too-stupid-to-live and her refusal to see the obvious wore on my patience; although, she always managed to come to her senses in the end.

While I did enjoy this book, I won't be reaching for the next book in this series immediately. At this time, this series serves as my go to "B list books" and "filler books", to be read in-between the waiting periods for my favorite authors' releases. Nevertheless, there is still yet hope that the next installment will knock my socks off.

I recommend this book to fellow dark urban fantasy readers and I will read the next book A Sliver of Shadow.

I have to admit the cover of this book, and the mention of enchanted iPods, unicorns, and magical marketplaces originally turned me off. Add the incubus, and I was thinking "book porn wrapped up in a ridiculous plot."

I COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG. After having the book appear in my recommendations for a couple of months, I finally decided to try a sample. That first taste piqued my curiosity enough that I went ahead and made the purchase. So very glad I did.

Pang's humor is dry and brilliant. The jaded pervy unicorn might possibly be one of my favorite elements. In addition to her humor, Pang brings some depth and pain to her relationships, though some are much better developed than others. Pang also bravely strays away from stereotypical romance resolutions. This is a breath of fresh air for those of us who read a lot of urban fantasy. For all it's supernatural elements, the primary romance relationship acknowledges it's lack of emotional health and doesn't wrap up with a happily ever after neat and tidy bow. (If you are looking for happily ever afters, you want someone who's not Pang. Try Kresley Cole - you'll love it.)

Pang is not afraid to give her characters significant flaws - physically, mentally, and emotionally. The most refreshing of these are the physical flaws, as the characters have to deal with ugly issues which normally wouldn't find their way anywhere near a book with romantic elements.

Pang's action plot can drag a little bit here and there with a lot of talk about "what do we do next" and maybe not quite enough doing. But these moments are few and far between, detracting little from the overall plot.

Definitely a thumbs-up from me, who was prepared to hate it but ultimately loved it enough to give it 5 stars. Hope the next installment is just as great.
