First "urban fantasy" novel I've ever read. The world felt a little hollow, especially with the forced references to modern culture (iPods and TV mostly).
The set up was better than the payoff. The whole plot at the end felt a little convoluted. It seemed to take too long to figure out what was up with the cat--which seemed obvious to me right away. Overall, the magic was lacking a bit--though I enjoyed the memory doctoring and the implanted desires intriguing.
