Preternatural Affairs, Books 1-3: Witch Hunt, Silver Bullet, and Hotter Than Helltown

Great world building, and great magical mayhem, as we're introduced to the OPA, kind of like the FBI of the supernatural world. Agent Cesar Hawke is an interesting and compelling character, as the reader tags along with his investigations into bad witches, evil demons, and the treachery within his own secret government agency. Fun, fast reading. 5 magical stars.

Is it the absolute best trilogy I've ever read? No. But it was good enough that I'm lending my e-book to my best friend. If you like fantasy in the modern setting, you'll probably enjoy the set. It's medium light reading, nothing so onerous and heavy or dark as to exhaust the reader. The characters are fun and diverse and even though there are some quite predictable developments, there's also a few surprises.

I have read other books by this author and I enjoyed them so I decided to read this set. This was a great set about paranormal individuals that work for the Office of Preternatural Affairs. Cesar Hawke's is a witch and he works with Magical Violations NOT with dead bodies. He is arrested and accused of murder and escapes from the police jail. He plans to try and clear his name. The story follows him as he investigates who could have framed him. He is looking for Isobel, someone there office is trying to find. He finds her and since she is a necromancer, he wants her to talk to the womon he is accused of killing. The books follow the adventures of Cesar, Agent Suzanne, his office mate, Isobel and his supervisor Fritz, Friederling as they go off on a special project that Fritz wants them to work on. A well written series, they flows with excitement as they fight demons bringing their little group closer together to keep Humanity safe. This fun book is a fast read. I just went from story to story as fast as I could until the end.

✿*ﾟ¨ﾟ✎*.:｡✿*♡LOVE♡LOVE♡ ✿*ﾟ¨ﾟ✎･ ✿ I had originally purchased the Audible set after it being suggested; for being narrated by Jeffrey Kafer. So far all his books have been perfection; even after reading Kindle version and been disappointed. All the characters have their own singularities and emotions felt. You forget it's narrated by the same person. Awesome!! \(-ㅂ-)/ ♥ ♥ ♥ The novel itself keeps you captivated throughout all three stories! I was thrilled when finding out all three novels were available!! Forget having or collecting different covers. I was instantly hooked!! I could imagine this "normal" world with people able to perform magic, and all the different weirdos that practice the occult. Having a special department to control those who practice magic, made it adventurous. I haven't checked out the next book in series. But, if it's like the first three, I would recommend as stand alone for teenagers or Young Adults. Thank you so much for this collection. The suspense kept you immerse in the stories; and Cesar Hawke's allergies to magic was a trip! Much looking forward and getting ready for the next!

In a good way. SM Reines has a talent of getting you inside the head of the hunters as well as the demons they are chasing. Cesar Hawke , a hunter in the OPA, goes through trials and tribulations while hunting preternatural beings in this 3 biook set. I enjoyed these stories and look forward to reading more of this authors work.

Preternatural Affairs is one of those guilty pleasure types of reads. I probably shouldn't like it but I do. There's a lot of crassness and language. The main character is a turd with a lot of bad qualities (he's totally flawed and he knows it) but he's also kind of a likeable turd with a lot of redeeming qualities as well. The story is kind of dark but also hilarious at times. It all just seems to come together to make it an interesting and pretty good read. For those who want to know: there is a lot of language, some sex (and lots of sexual thoughts) and violence.

SM Reine does it again. Draws me in with the first 3 books and I go on and buy the other 4 books immediately upon finishing the first three. Very easy read with twists and turns that keep you reading. Love the main characters of Hawk, Fitz, Stonecrow and Suzy. They have a very complicated relationship which is mostly revealed in Book 5, the novella. Demons, witches, kopides, FBI and Union characters living side by side but not necessarily getting along well together. Each of the books has it's own story drama which is completed by the end of each book so you could read one and stop, but the characters with all their past travels on to Book two and then Book three, etc. And, then I drop my Kindle because I can't make my eyes stay open anymore to keep reading. You will too hopefully. Love Reine's books.

I was not able to stop with just the first book. I had to continue and read all of them! That happened within 2 days. The stories were interesting, with some subtle humor in there. The really enjoyed them and will probably read the rest of the series.

I have enjoyed everything about this collection, each book is more exciting than the last. They are all fast paced with lots of twists that didn't expect. The characters are so well thought out that i feel like I know them personally. Cesar is such a funny and quite pathetic character that you can't help but like him and throughout the stories I kept hoping he would get the girl. Cesar is by far my favorite character in the set. I can't wait to get stuck into the next book...

Written in similar style and pop culture references to Gary Jonas's Jonathan Shade series, this 3 part series delivers the very best in entertainment value. I hope there are many more books for me to read. I also absolutely loved the gym and bodybuilding references!

This book had my interest immediately and kept it there throughout the entire 1-3 book series! It was like reading one book. There is humor, suspense and many things to hold your interest. f you're a fan of supernatural books, I suggest you give these a try! I did and I'm glad!

And try these books - at $0, what do you have to loose? You will thank me if you do. Sara has produced an incredibly entertaining set of books. Told from a guy’s POV (refreshing), he is a walking contradiction, that produces halarious results. He is a huge, muscular, good looking man. If you try the Audio books (which were very well done), he also has a deep, gravelly voice. However, he is also a geek, an awkward gentleman with the ladies, squeamish around blood, and he has a magic allergy. Did I mention he is a witch? In the first book, he finds a dead girl in his bath. Who killed her and framed him? It keeps you guessing to end.

A solid workd, good people and worthy villians. I enjoyed losing myself into these books and cheering on my chosen players. This is a solid author at the top of their game!
