Good gravy this is an addictive series!
In this book some of the author's darker thoughts color the storyline. He introduces zombies with a scary twist as well as pavormancy which delves into one's deepest fears and turns them back on you.
Of course, there is also the customary snark, brotherhood and massive amounts of destruction that we live for. And let's not forget Peaches, the hellhound extraordinaire, loved by us all...tell me you haven't wanted to learn how to make sausage for this lovable hellhound?
Another incredible installation in the Montague & Strong Detective series. -
Another ridiculous, crazy OTT adventure and I’m really enjoying the crazy.
Peaches once again completely steals the show. -
Deathane😂😂😂
OMFG, I’m just blown away by how consistently good this series is. As always I was drawn in from the first page, this book has made me realize that it's the combination of Simon and Tristan that is detrimental to any location they inhabit. As Simon and Peaches race against time to rescue Tristan the property damage is kept to a minimal, Simon is at his wiseass best as he goes up against enemies that he has no chance of beating but that has never stopped him before and it's sure as hell not stopping him now. This is everything I’ve come to expect from Orlando Sanchez, absolute madness, mayhem, and hilarity. The ending left me desperate for more. -
Just Peachy
Loved it ...mad mages ,shieldbearers , psychotic family members & a good dose of hubris not to mention humour ...just be careful when simon is around master yat's stick is on overtime & karma ...well read it and see ...bring sausage there's a hungry hellhound . -
Exceeding expectations is becoming normal
With each installment of M&S you begin to expect a certain level of awesomeness, yet once again Orlando Sanchez has surpassed the crazed fans desperate wanting and delivered another nail biting, pulse pounding adventure worthy of a master. -
Okay, Monty's family has updated from scary to terrifying.
This time Master Yat requires Simon and Monty's help, but Monty is still weak and has difficulties casting magic, there are revenants roaming the city and a powerful pavormancer after them.
I loved seeing Simon and Peaches running from location to location, looking for allies to save Monty (some of them truly powerful and very dangerous to piss off) without stopping for a second to think about consequences. If you still needed any proof of the deep bond between these characters this book will erase them.
Another fantastic story in this series, I seriously can't have enough of them! -
As Monty deals with issues, it's Strong and Peaches who take the brunt of their latest case and the results are intense, insane, and hilarious. They bounce to and from sets around not only New York City but also the different planes, grabbing allies and assistance from wherever they can. Somehow, the stakes keep rising, the challenges become more dire, and the situations get crazier. A roller coaster ride, a literary Dark Goat.

Another adventure for the Montague and Strong Detective Agency. A weakened Tristan is kidnapped and taken to Sheol, a prison For supernatural beings. If he’s left there too Ling he’ll die. Simon rounds up what help he can and sets off to rescue his friend. That’s just one of the story lines. This is another exciting, fast paced story, I won’t share any more for fear of spoilers but there’s a neat hook at the end that has me scrambling for the next book in the series!

The story line is getting darker as the saga continues. I'm learning more about Simon & Monty's character as they face more difficult choices. Another well written book by Sanchez that reveals more about the familiar characters while introducing new material to develop upcoming installments.

Hard to believe that this the seventh entry in Orlando Sanchez's entertaining Montague and Strong detective agency series (although I'm not sure when they ever do any, well, detecting), which starts with Tristan Montague having (temporarily?) lost access to his magic, just as a group of dark Mages enter the city
What follows will be familiar to readers of the series: destruction, mayhem and, of course, the hellhound Peaches in the middle of it all. -
Always such a pleasure to read!!!
I love how everyone from the M&S universe is finally interacting on a more larger scale, kinda like the MCU universe.
This latest book on the series offered a lot of answers that I’ve been wondering about since book 1.
Who knew Tristan & Roxanne’s relationship bordered on the complex like Simon’s & Chi’s
I think I TK just became a favourite too
and the mystery about who the rest of the Ten are and why they were formed is very intriguing indeed.
Read through the entire book in 4 hours it did not disappoint I can’t wait for the next one.
The rapport between Simon & Peaches reached an all new level camaraderie indeed. -
Real Family
Excellent book! The story behind this book is about family and not the one that is biological. Simon is going to do a lot of sleuthing because he must save family. Who is his family , well in this case it is Monty! You will meet another of Monty’s family but that doesn’t mean he is the nicest person around. Mystery abounds heart stones and Master Yat. Learn a bit about Master Yat and family and watch Simon grow in another way. He learns more about what Peaches can really do
Awesome work and I look forward to the next book in the series. More meat for Peaches,lol! -
Mr. Sanchez is a master storyteller. This time out, Simon needs to rescue Monty from The Pit, and he comes into some of his own in this book – and it shows how strong the bond between Simon, Monty and Peaches is becoming. I was all in – and Mr. Sanchez didn’t let me down. The great world building that continues on in each book, building upon what is already there, and the author promises us that we will learn more and more about these characters in every book and even though it seems Simon is going to get in trouble with his wise-ass ways, this book shows us that he’s so much more and stronger than you think. And Peaches? One of the greatest sidekicks ever.

Amazing
The latest book in the world of M&S gets better an better each time. With us seeing a little of the larger picture as it evolves .. if you like your books packed full of action explosions magic an mayhem look no further. I Can’t recommend it enough with a talented author who is creating more an more series for me to keep up with each day the operative an now DW(dread warlock)..
don’t know how you do it Orlando Sanchez I struggle to remember the shopping list at times let alone make all those series tie in or cross over!! Lol -
Excellent!
The Montigue and Strong Detective Agency series gets better with every book. I love the characters and the story. They are magic, mayhem and monsters without being too crazy. They deliver action, excitement, and humor with some tender moments and it combines to make the fantasy seem real.
In Bullets and Blades, Strong proved he was more than the comedic clueless sidekick as he had only himself to rely on to save Monty.
I love this series. -
Simon was incredible in this volume. I loved that it was his smarts and guts that won the day here. And the way he beat the unbeatable mage was fantastic. The others tend to disregard his abilities - well, outside his ability to destroy things (through no fault of his own, though!) - because he isn't a mage but sometimes, that comes in handy. Like here. Where it allowed him to think outside the box. Love this series so much!

Awesome
Another book well done. We get to see Simon ride to the rescue to help Tristan and see more of what makes them tick. The action is fast paced as always and leaves you eagerly turning the pages to see what's going to happen next. I can't wait for the next book to come out. -
Although the story is full of action, adventure, and urban fantasy mystery, it is mostly about what truly bonds a family, and it isn't always blood. Simon and Peaches shine in their interactions with key players of Monty's world, those we have met, others only hinted out heretofore. Excellent addition to the series. Enjoyed Simon's growth, and so glad books don't exude smells lol.

An Ending With Bombshells!
As a Montague & Strong fan, I’ve gotten used to this author tying off the threads of his current story, and then adding an epilogue or chapter which stuns you with what’s to come. This time there are bombshell surprises for Monty, Simon . . . and Peaches!
Did I mention this includes chapter one from the next book: “HELL HATH NO FURY.”
