The thing is, I really liked this serial right up until the last episode. I knew from the beginning it was only five episodes long, but the fifth felt so rushed. I'm a huge fan of Tim Pratt's writing and I do hope he returns to the world he's created here somehow. Short stories? Novels? I don't care, just do it! ;) Pretty much, aside from the rushed ending, this had everything I wanted from a serial. Each episode ended in a cliffhanger that left me hotly anticipating the next. I very much liked the character of Beka and the way she accepted and dealt with this sudden inheritance of magic. Her siblings were different and interesting and I'd like to learn more about them. So, in conclusion, Dear Tim Pratt, this was really cool, please write more for me. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Recent art school graduate Bekah thought she'd hit the jackpot: an unknown relative died, and she inherited a small fortune and a huge house in the mountains of North Carolina. Trey Howard, the lawyer who handled the estate, is a handsome man in his twenties and they hit it off right away--and soon become more than friends. Bekah expected a pleasant year to get her head together and have a romantic fling. Problem is, the house is full of junk...and siblings she didn't know she had are willing to kill her for it. More important, the junk in her new house is magical, she's surrounded by monsters, and her life seems to be in mortal peril every time she ventures into a new room. As Bekah discovers more about her mysterious benefactor and the magical world he inhabited, she's realizes that as tough and resourceful as she is, she might just be in over her head...Heirs of Grace is a tale of family and magic, action and wonder, blending the strong heroine, cheeky humor, and dark fantasy that have become the hallmarks of Tim Pratt's writing.

I sort of had to force myself to the finish line with this one. Bekah is an interesting character in that she tosses some college level words around punctuated with the usual slang phrases of the day. I don’t care for The Trey character at all. I like the magical Grace family members however. No detail was spared in describing their appearances and actions.
I’ll wrap this with the hope for better books in the near future. ( )
