Every now and then I find myself reading a book that I can't wait to finish so that I can read something a little 'meatier'Witches Incorporated is one of these books. On the surface it is a spy novel involving wizards and and a secret agency, but there is also a second story involving a detective agency run by a princess, a witch and a talking bird(also royalty but bewitched many years ago)Now doesn't that sound as if it could be very interesting?I certainly thought so when I started it but I was very wrong.The characters are boring... they really shouldn't be, but they spend so much time arguing and bickering with each other, pages and pages of it, that it slows down the story quite alarmingly.The plot itself was a good one, lots of twists and turns but the denouement was so obvious it quite spoiled it for me. I knew who the baddies were long before the end, and after that it was just a question of reading on , and waiting for the author to let me know if I was correct.And as for the humour, well for me there were absolutely no 'laugh out loud' lines and very few smiles. It was all very disappointing.
