Publisher's Summary

What happens when all the myths, legends, and things that go bump in the night come out to the world as real? Well, the world does as it always does: It rejected them. 

Welcome to Avalantis, Alaska, the world’s first supercity with over 50 million myth and mundane citizens and home of those rejected by society. Although due to pesky things like murder end explosions, there are a few fewer citizens. When the former Greek god Hermes dies, three unusual cops from the Avalantis PD are recruited into a secret organization known as Mortal, who has apparently been watching the Myths for longer than mankind realizes. 

Their mission is to find and apprehend the mysterious figure known as “The Laughing Man”, the one responsible for a recent string of deaths. These three new recruits will have to use all their skill, strength, and wits to find and defeat the “The Laughing Man”. That is, if they don’t kill each other first. 

Agents of Mortal: Deicide is an action-comedy that is packed with excitement, laughs, and more than a few touching moments.

A great new supernatural police story!

If I had to sum up this book, I'd say it was like Netflix's Bright, except not crap. In this world, the supernatural has come out, and they were given a place to live together up in Alaska, in a city made to purpose by the elves.
It's an effective combination of a supernatural and a police story mixed up. The characters felt real, and had realistic motivations and reactions.
The humour was spot on and used in all the right parts of the narrative.
It even managed to make me feel for some side characters, such as the gods, who no longer have worshippers and are trying to find meaning in a world that not only doesn't want them, but actively derides them.
The narrative combination of Kosta and Kafer worked very well, and mixed perfectly for the story.
Ultimately, this was a great start to a great new series, and I can't wait for the next one!
