Whiskey and Water is the second half of the duology started with Blood and Iron. It is set 7 years later and in many ways deals with the unfinished business from and consequences of the end of the first book. But where Elaine and the stories of the Fae & Merlin were the centre of the last book, in this one it's Matthew Magus and the stories of Hell & the Devil in his many forms that take centre stage. I finished reading this a while ago but I've been putting off talking about it because while I know what happened on a surface level I have a tantalising feeling of not quite getting it on a deeper level. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the book, I just have a sense of something just outside my grasp.
