The Last Smile in Sunder City
The Last Smile in Sunder City is a brilliantly voiced contemporary fantasy for fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Rotherweird or Terry Pratchett's Discworld, and the debut novel from actor Luke Arnold. Luke has a huge fan following and is best known for his lead role on Black Sails
I'm Fetch Phillips, just like it says on the window. There are a few things you should know before you hire me:
1. Sobriety costs extra.
2. My services are confidential - the cops can never make me talk.
3. I don't work for humans.
It's nothing personal - I'm human myself. But after what happened, Humans don't need my help. Not like every other creature who had the magic ripped out of them when the Coda came...
I just want one real case. One chance to do something good.
Because it's my fault the magic is never coming back.

The book is praised for its abundant charm and the intriguing presence of a hero with a compelling story. It is seen as an effortlessly readable blend that evokes the styles of Terry Pratchett and Dashiell Hammett.
