Marie Howalt: A Study in Black Brew Transparency note: I was given this as an e-arc. It has got decorative initials! Of course, this isn't a per se argument for or against a book, but I love initials at chapter beginnings and I have no idea why this isn't the standard anymore. I'm not even asking for medieval all-out fancy, artistic illustrations in letter-form - just enlarge that first letter, and there you go.

I received an arc of Marie Howalt's upcoming novel "A Study in Black Brew" and finally have gotten around to share my thoughts in English & German.
