Written in Red is kind of like the fast food of urban fantasy. A Big Mac, maybe, or some Kentucky Fried Chicken. It tasted pretty good going down but then I felt a little blech afterwards. In other words: it was pretty fun while it lasted, but the worldbuilding is on the weak side with several logical holes in it, the main character is kind of bland, and the whole "blood prophet" concept (getting visions of the future through cutting oneself) left a sour taste in my mouth.
Full review to come. I'm kind of curious about what happens next, but reading the GR reviews for the later books in the series isn't exactly motivational.

Thanks, but this series is something I’ll just check out from the library, if I read it at all. :)
