Review

"Chock full of sweary gangsters, snark and deadpan humour, thrills and spills and genuinely terrifying moments, this is smart and fun storytelling, a novel for the devil in us all... Dominion is mad, bad and glorious to read." - Edward Cox, author of the Relic Guild series; "Who wouldn't want to read a book narrated by a foul-mouthed demon-botherer called Don? From dark streets to sticky sewers, Dominion is a belting urban fantasy that takes you on a breakneck tour of London's under-underworld, with plenty of evil laughs (and F-bombs) along the way." - Matt Hill, author of Graft; "Fans of Richard Kadrey's Sandman Slim will dig this series." - The B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog; "The story is delivered with the same excellent wit as the first. Its humour is still the main strength here, at times delivered so spectacularly subtly and at others with a brilliant punch. McLean conveys a shining example of dry British humour and a character that glows with it." - British Fantasy Society; "Snarky, pacy and hellishly fun. Don Drake is just the sort of hero, with just the sort of life, to make you feel good about yourself. Dark and delightful, like a naughty treat, this is a rollicking story." - Francis Knight, author of Fade to Black; "Dominion is one of those books that I just didn't want to end but couldn't stop turning the pages. Another fantastic Burned Man novel by Pete McLean." - Sue Tingey, author of Marked and Cursed; "With the engaging writing and the huge number of avenues Don Drake's world offers in terms of exploration, this series has a long way to go before running out of steam." - Strange Alliances; "A really firm instalment and definitely added some more meat to the bones of McLean's world. It's fast paced and entertaining with a conclusion that definitely makes me want to read more." - Lynn's Books; "A fun read." - Pop Verse; "You'll enjoy the journey - I know I did!" - Ebookwyrm's Blog Cave; "Urban fantasy doesn't often get this dark, or this much fun." - Morpheus Tales; "Dominion has absolutely everything I am looking for in a good sequel." - The Eloquent Page; "I love it. This is such a terrific series and I am totally hooked." - Rambles, Writings and Amusing Musings; "Swimmingly good dark urban fantasy that would blitz your mind." - Smorgasbord Fantasia
