TIES THAT BIND…

Mage Jonathan Leeds has built himself a comfortable life owning and operating an exclusive night club in London, far from the iron grasp of his family. But when his father, Gordon, abruptly summons him to the Seattle Metroplex, John finds himself a stranger in a strange land, thrown into the wilds of the ’Plex to manage a situation apparently only he can handle. Although he’d prefer to ignore his father’s wishes, John knows that no one—family or foe—says no to Gordon Leeds. At least, not if they want to live to tell about it.

But family obligations aren’t the only reason John is in Seattle. His patron back in England, Lord Callen Nassau, has asked him to look for a missing woman. John is only too happy to oblige, as the elegant elf noble is everything his father is not. But when Gordon’s and Callen’s tasks intertwine in unexpected ways, John is forced to question everything he knows about both men, and soon discovers not all that glitters is gold.

When the desires of these rich and powerful beings collide in the Sixth World, John finds himself a pawn in their vicious game. If he’s to escape the Emerald City in one piece, John knows he must take control of the situation—any way he can—or suffer the lethal consequences.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shadowrun Meets Daddy Issues
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2022
ELFIN BLACK was a wild ride in the Sixth World of Shadowrun where a wannabe elf mage and nightclub owner gets caught up in the machinations of family, friends, and power. The author ends every chapter on a mini-cliffhanger, amping the tension, and has a wide range of characters with a tip of the hat to modern, real world, representation which was very much appreciated. A fast paced read with an ending that shocks both the main character and the reader alike in its necessity. If you like Shadowrun, or if you enjoy modern fantasy with a high stakes twist, you will certainly enjoy ELFIN BLACK.

4.0 out of 5 stars Shadows: yes; running: not so much
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 11, 2023

Elfin Black is mostly set in Snohomish, Seattle and has a wonderful description of that city and it's underworld (violent, small-minded gangsters, corrupt bureaucrats, underworld clubs and racist good ol' boys). If this is what you're looking for, then this is the book for you.

The protagonist is an aristocrat and small businessman and the book does a great job of emphasising the gap between rich and poor in the Shadowrun universe. It reminded me of a dark version of Geraint from the Gascoigne and Sargent Shadowrun novels from the 90s. It's unmistakably set in the Shadowrun Universe and covers parts of society which are a step away from those usually covered by other novels.

Personally this wasn't entirely to my tastes, I don't tend to find the trials and tribulations of rich kids (especially heirs) who slum it to be especially engrossing. Nonetheless I read the whole thing from cover to cover in two sittings, so there must have been something I enjoyed :)

TL;DR: A reasonably good read. If you're looking for descriptions of Snohomish in Shadowrun then you should definitely read this, otherwise maybe download and read the sample before buying.

Ein Hauptcharakter mit Daddy Issues...
In dem bekannten Shadowrun-Universium spielt diese Geschichte eines Londoner Clubbesitzers, der auf Anweisung seines Vaters in Seattler Umgebung auch einen Club aufmachen soll.
Dazu noch diverse Unterhandlungen und fertig ist die Story. Klingt nicht so toll, ist es auch nicht.
Der Hauptcharakter stellt sich seinen Problemen und kommt schwammig und soft rüber. Ihm nebengetellt sind sehr starke Personen, die alle ihre eigenen Ziele verfolgen was den soften Ton des Hauptcharakters noch verstärkt.
Schade war, dass die Kurzgeschichte, die den Hauptcharakter in seinem Club zeigt, erst hinten steht. Nach der Lektüre dieser konnte ich ein paar der Fragezeichen hinter der Figur streichen.
Insgesamt aber nicht so doll.
