Narrative Conducive To Books Grumpy Old Wizards (Grumpy Old Wizards #1)

Category six wizard, Josephine O’Connor, is called in to help with a series of murders involving dark magic. Unfortunately, the killer covers his tracks very well and destroys virtually all trace of psychometric energy which makes the crime scene unreadable – even for a talent such as Josephine.

By all rights, Josephine shouldn’t be forced to contend with this case. After all, she’s a retired eighty-four-year-old and she can hardly be blamed for having a beautiful body akin to a woman in her mid-twenties. It’s just one of the perks of being a rare category six. Josephine’s problems pile up to insurmountable odds as the killer grows stronger, Detective Riley pesters her for a quick resolution to this challenging case, and her obnoxious neighbor starts harassing her just because she looks too young to live in a retirement community.

Write-Up About Books Grumpy Old Wizards (Grumpy Old Wizards #1)

A mystery with no mystery. Who and why are obvious. This book is filled with stupid characters who think they are smart behaving like children. The writing is simplistic: this is a speed read book. Could use some editing. People appeared out of nowhere, words with multiple meanings were used where the natural way to read the sentence makes little sense: when you're at the beach, what do you mean by "move the chair across the room"? Why does she have to put on shorts and a top to be presentable

I feel guilty writing a review for a book I couldn't finish, but this was really poor writing. I couldn't get past chapter two. Even if I could have waded through the ample use of adjectives and the info-dumps of back story, I don't think I could have gotten to like the childish characters and unrealistic dialogue. I love the concept of the book, though. With proper rewrites and editing, it could have been something great.It just goes to show that authors must have editors. This is

Magical Mayhem!I liked the main characters, and the mischief they got into with their pranks. There's definitively potential for funny magical mayhem. Gary is an interesting wizard that I would have liked to see become more of a friend with more personality. I didn't like the murderer. There wasn't much of a build up about the murders, then there the killer was, then it was over posthaste, the ending was kaput, and the story was abruptly over, without tying up the loose ends, or having a



I absolutely love Josephine and her friends and foibles. Lots of great stuff is going on in this book. First of all, it's very funny, while at the same time being propelled by a good plot, making for a really engaging read. The humor arises from the biting dialogue, which is really clever, believable, and adds depth to the characters. For example, one character called her ex 'Spot" in reference to his complexion and his doggish behavior, and funny details like that are liberally sprinkled in to

First, I received this book for free from LibraryThing as a member giveaway in return for an honest review. I rather enjoyed this book. I usually read book with love stories or triangles and this book had neither, so that was a refreshing change of pace for me. I found parts of the story to be very funny and other parts to be sort of bland. I am looking forward to reading the next installment. I would recommend this to anyone who loves fantasy.

Great ReadFun stuff with some amazing concepts thrown in. Ordinary people who struggle with daily delimas and hilarious situations, rules, regulations. Wish I was a wizard!Nancy M
