If you loved the fast-paced, supernatural investigations and the darkly comic tone of Simon Canderous’s adventures in Dead to Me, you’ll be hooked by Sandman Slim. James Stark, freshly escaped from Hell, navigates the seedy magical underbelly of Los Angeles, slinging spells and one-liners as he seeks vengeance. The book’s relentless drive and punchy dialogue make for an addictive read.

If you enjoyed the snarky humor and sardonic wit of Simon Canderous as he bumbles through magical mishaps, you’ll get a kick out of Peter Grant’s deadpan narration in Midnight Riot. As a rookie cop-turned-wizard’s apprentice, Peter faces off with vengeful ghosts and mischievous river gods, all while keeping the tone refreshingly light and clever.

If Simon’s ethically murky decisions as a paranormal investigator intrigued you, Harry Dresden’s struggles as Chicago’s only wizard-for-hire will hit the spot. Storm Front is packed with tough choices, dubious deals, and a hero who sometimes breaks the rules to get the job done—all set against a backdrop of magical mayhem and noir atmosphere.

If you were fascinated by the Department of Extraordinary Affairs in Dead to Me, you’ll love the Checquy, a secret British agency in The Rook. Myfanwy Thomas wakes up with no memory and must navigate both her bizarre powers and the Checquy’s internal conspiracies, blending supernatural intrigue with bureaucratic absurdity and suspenseful action.

If you raced through Dead to Me for its brisk action and relentless magical complications, Magic Bites delivers the same adrenaline rush. Kate Daniels juggles deadly magical outbreaks and battles with supernatural factions in Atlanta, offering non-stop action, sharp dialogue, and a protagonist who never gets a break.
