I've finished: The Stranger Times by C.K. McDonnell

It was recommended to me here on Mastodon' though I don't remember by who.

I hadn't heard of C.K. McDonnell before and am glad to have found such a talented comedy writer.

The Stranger Times is over the top sitcom urban fantasy.

There aren't many good funny fantasy writers. Many try to hard and it shows. McDonnell's characters go all the way across the line into caricature, thus avoiding the uncanny valley between the real and the absurd.

@zkrisher @bookstodon I haven't read that one but I have read his Dublin Trilogy books and I really like him. Never disappointed when I read his stuff
