Hit Man, Cop, or Wizard?Undercover cop John Angelo was trying to infiltrate the mob by posing as a contract killer when a necromantic ambush resulted in his death. Only death was not the end for Angelo. He came back, as something much more than what he was ... a blend of his own personality and that of a two-thousand-year-old sorcerer named Modred. His wizard half had to come back from the dead to help the avatars defeat the Dark Ones, immortal necromancers awakened from a spell that had kept them dormant since the dawn of time. But his human cop half came back with a damaged memory, believing that his cover identity as the lethal hit man, Johnny Angel, was who he really was. Torn between two personalities, each vying for control, Angelo struggles to maintain his sanity and stay alive while an immortal killer stalks him, seeking to put him and Modred down once and for all.

This is also a book in a series, and the back-fill of details is handled really clumsily - and about 3 times in a 210 page book! This is a big part of why only 3 stars, just how forgetful are we meant to be? How forgetful was the editor ffs?
The story itself is pretty easy to pick up, and bounces along quite happily. I suspect the fact that the bad guys essentially self-destruct is a reaction to the earlier books when they get taken out by the good guys, but even so it works quite nicely in this story.
It's just... it's shallow, fast and undercooked too. I only finished an hour ago and I can't remember the names of most of the characters. The one I can remember: Modred has replaced Mordred in the Arthurian legend. Why? ( )
