Libriomancer (Magic Ex Libris, #1)

by Jim C. Hines

Isaac Vainio is a Libriomancer, a member of a secret society founded five centuries ago by Johannes Gutenberg. As such, he is gifted with the magical ability to reach into books and draw forth objects.

But when Gutenberg vanishes without a trace, Isaac finds himself pitted against everything from vampires to a sinister, nameless foe who is bent on revealing magic to the world at large... and at any cost.

So, the premise of this book is probably the dream of every reader: To be able to reach in a book and take out whatever, I mean the possibilities are endless, but when I first started reading I couldn't concentrate and ended up dropping. So, I was looking for something to read this week and pick it up again and this time I liked, not the best book in the world, a lot of clichés, but you know 3 stars, solid C, pass with reservations, a chance to improve in the future.

Therefore I'll recommend this to anyone who's a fan of urban fantasy and doesn't have anything better to read, flip through, see what's what.
