But this time, the attempts of the Imperium (in gross Magic) to return American society against the "Assets" were successful, remember the case of the Ray of Peace turned against the US territory awarded these dangerous individuals.
Worse, it quickly becomes clear that high-placed people in American government circles have launched a new agency, the Office of Coordination of Information before which John Edgar Hoover, the master, was even forced to retreat in its prerogatives.
The purpose of this agency: control the "Assets" and learn from all the other tyrannies of time forcibly enlisted their own population and affected, in the interest of the greatest number, of course ...
Here are our Knight Grimnoir facing the worst situation: the growing hostility of the population but also and especially the condemnation of the entire state apparatus in its various incarnations Notice: police and justice, but also illegal : the new agency does not burden itself with scruples to the point of being behind the attacks then allocated to assets (a safe bet).
In addition, the Information Office of Coordination few surprises supernatural order our knights of those surprises that make the carpet under your feet and question everything. So we are pleased to have once again Grimnoir at bay, still little support from the international parent organization, but this time some explanations glimmers begin drilling ... You may be surprised learn that the distrust of the "Ancient Ones" of the organization is not unfounded and that once again will have to choose between realism and idealism.
Moreover the threat of the enemy is changing dramatically, instead of staying in the background of a small anecdote in which the author complairait 54 pounds during, bravo! So much so that the most surprising alliances will emerge, I'm still thing.
On the side of the narrative, Jack Sullivan, the main hero of gross Magic is much further back and we follow characters much more vulnerable than the unwavering Jack, especially the young Faye whose exceptional gifts she had received at the end of the first volume seem to have disappeared.
In terms of regrets, there, I found that the internal opposition in the US benefited from a number of Deus Ex Machina, necessary to endanger Assets as powerful as those of Grimnoir.
The fact remains that the most dangerous henchman of the Office, Crow, is remarkably camped, dangerous to his enemies but also for his friends, but also for himself. The scenes of confrontations yet taken a step in excess, it can not be said that the author thinks small!
Read American.
