⭑⭑⭑⭑ Masters of Death is a fun, manic frolic filled with angels, demons, vampires, ghosts, mortals and even Death, himself. It's masterfully written though chaotic, picking up random strings of the story from various angles without a linear progression. It's filled with sarcasm and all sorts of grandiose dialogue and pronouncements that might boggle the mind if you try too hard to make sense of things. It's a wild roller coaster ride of multi-dimensional scope and I don't feel comfortable saying what this novel is about as tidbits of plot are sprinkled casually, though with great purpose, throughout.
I found this a fun distraction but did grow weary of the many exasperated ways characters uttered, "Fox". It felt as if that one name was mentioned for pages and pages. This was pretty much my only niggle. Fox is exasperating but that just gave more depth to the vast array of characters and the role they play within the wide web of narration. Fun, crazy, fully distracting. Masters of Death was just what I wanted, thank you.
