Nice book. It is not for me though. I have less interest in magic stories.

I wouldn't call myself a fan of a story based on gangsterism, although I have never really read a book on it before. This seems like well-written book with an intriguing plot though. Thanks for the engaging review.

Magic and fantasy! An interesting combination. The book sounds very intriguing, but magic isn't for me. I like gangster books, but I wish this one was just about it.
Writing is so much fun. So is reading. :techie-studyingbrown:

The book sounds interesting. It has quite an unexpected plot - gangsters posessing mysterious artifacts giving them magical powers which they use for corruption and control. With the connection of the modern and future technologies, it's the new level of the gangster book. I'm not a fan of gangster stories but the book does seem very appealing. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

I read this book. It's looking like a underworld families who rules the whole world with their terror and power. All seven families looks like gangsters all are magicians and doing magic to protect their families and getting revenge with out any hasitation :evil2: :tiphat: :evil: :techie-studyinggray:

I am not a fan of gangster novels. But this one sounds as if it is well written with an interesting plot, for everyone who does want to delve into an alternate gangster world.

Nice review although I'll love it if it contains a touch of romance and without the help of modern technology as i kinda prefer it to be magical but all in all I think it's a wonderful book.

personally I don't really like gangster movie or book, but with the mixture of magical power I think the story line makes sense to me, and with the little twist.. @Emie Cuevas thanks for the review. Nice one.

Thanks for your review.The book is more of magic and supernatural power by ruling families in Exodus.The book must have a little bit of everything for every reader. Kudos to Jordan Petrarca.
