Furlong keeps the pace steady and the action will have you on the edge of your seat. Reasons that become more clear once Jono and Patrick are introduced. Jonothon de Vere is a God pack werewolf (God packs were werecreatures infected with a super strain of the werevirus, called the 'God strain' among scientists.) originally from London and brought to New York by a Seer for.reasons.

The war that nearly killed him hurt him more than physically, but mentally and emotionally as well, and he's still struggling with the weight of what has happened.

Partners have found his damaged magic too distracting, but he's doing his best, and has learned how, to work around his magical limitations. Patrick has been working alone lately since he was soul-injured in the thirty day war. Patrick's about to fly off to Maui for a much-needed vacation when he's called to New York City to investigate. Patrick Collins is a Mage and special agent for the Supernatural Operations Agency (SOA). There's a lot of world-building here, with a ton of secondary charactersand though Gary Furlong provides the main characters with distinctive character voices, let's be honest, the sheer number of secondary characters makes it impossible to provide distinct character voices for all, but I felt like Furlong did a really admirable job with as many voices as he was able to present. A Ferry of Bones & Gold is an Urban Fantasy full of action and suspense with a romantic subplot. Gods, mages, were creatures, and more are pawns in the mystery behind a missing immortal and the dead bodies showing up in ritualistic killings all over New York City. In the end, all debts must be paid, and Patrick can only do what he does best - cheat death. Jonothon de Vere is gorgeous, dangerous, and nothing but trouble - to the case, to the fight against every hell, and ultimately, to Patrick’s heart and soul. That doesn’t stop Patrick from wanting what he shouldn’t have.

Patrick has been inexplicably attracted to the man from their first meeting, but desire has no place in war. Looking for allies in all the wrong places, Patrick discovers the Dominion Sect’s next target is the same werewolf the Fates themselves have thrown into his path. Standing his ground alone has never been a winning option in Patrick’s experience, but it’s been years since he’s had a partner he could trust. Unable to walk away, Patrick finds himself once again facing off against mercenary magic users belonging to the Dominion Sect. An immortal has gone missing in New York City and bodies are showing up in the wake of demon-led ritual killings that Patrick recognizes all too easily from his nightmares. Patrick Collins is three years into a career as a special agent for the Supernatural Operations Agency when the gods come calling to collect a soul debt he owes them. When the gods come calling, you don’t get to say no.
