It looks like love at first sight because the story picks up at the beginning of their romance, but the author does a great job at making their history as “colleagues”, acquaintances felt. Simeon is the sweet to Angel’s sour, they are adorable together. The romance could have been a tad too cheesy but S.J. The story is not gloomy but there are a few gruesome scenes in it. Whether it comes from Angel himself, who’s snarky and a bit of a smart-ass, or some of the situations he finds himself in. The story is a bit dark but there is some levity. They feel real because sorcery and magical creatures aside, they could be people we know since their problems and struggles are relatable. The world is compelling, very easy to understand, and it’s chuck full of complex characters. Lately, I’ve been gravitating to Urban fantasy books, and this book scratch that hitch. I’m not talking about zombie reading* but being so completely into the story that you don’t notice the time passing. The Necromancer’s Dance is one of these books that are so engrossing that when you come up for air you realize that you’ve covered two third of the book not sure how you got there.
