Marcella-Louise edited the summary of Traveler Sunday, October 2, 2011.

• Much of the action in Jackson's paranormal romance takes place in a city that seems just like present-day Detroit, with one difference: this Motor City is home to an underground nightmare city populated by refugee goblins expelled from Europe. Though seemingly grateful for their new world haven, the foul-smelling goblins have in fact secretly replaced the nation's leading industrialists, including Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, with deodorized doubles-and the takeover trail may lead much higher. Pitted against mysterious goblin leader Horroban and his six-limbed, four-breasted rock star girlfriend are "siren fey" Io Cyphre, who's a H.U.G. (Humans Under Ground) magical agent, and charismatic cop Jonathan "Jack" Frost, who's half fairy. A deliciously playful tone, especially in the banter between Io and Jack, makes this a fun, light read. At times, however, Jackson's Detroit feels more like a cartoon world than a plausible alternate realm. Still, this imaginative tale, the first in a new series of mystical romances from Jackson, delivers sizzling romance and ghoulish thrills at a breathtaking clip.

  Jackson often pushes the boundaries of paranormal romance, and charismatic cop Jonathan "Jack" Frost, who's half fairy. A deliciously playful tone, especiallythis, the first in the banter between Ioher Wildside series, is no exception. More dark romantic fantasy than fantasy romance, grimness permeates everything, even Jack and Jack, makes thisIo's relationship. The dark mood harkens to gothic fiction, but while that genre's desolation often has a fun, light read. At times, however,haunting beauty, Jackson's Detroit feels more like a cartoonworld than a plausible alternate realm. Still, this imaginative tale,is relentlessly menacing, at times repulsive, numbing one even to the first in a new seriesfew periods of mystical romances from Jackson, delivers sizzlinglevity. This is not for readers who want romance to be beautiful and ghoulish thrills at a breathtaking clip.
