Haven't heard of Benedict Jacka before, just came across the mention of his Alex Verus series today. Has anyone read it here? What do you think about it?

It’s really good.

I'm enjoying the Alex Verus series! I just finished book 3, and I really like Alex as a character.

Read them all and really enjoyed them. Read them after the Dresden files.

Audiobook versions are really well done.

It's nice to see the support for the Alex Verus books. I read the first one a couple of years ago and intended to continue, I just never got around to it because there's so much other stuff. Definitely bumping it back up the list now.

It’s really good. It only gets better as you go along. I loved it.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone!

Will get first couple of books soon and give them a try.
