Indexing by Seanan McGuire (Urban Fantasy)

Indexing is a currently on-going Kindle serial story set in a version of our world where tales try to force their way into reality, co-opting seemingly ordinary people that happen to fit into a particular story-line to meet the goals of the Narrative.

A Snow White, Henry Marchen heads a team from the ATI, the investigative agency that tries to stop, or at the very least, control the incursions of the Narrative that can literally end people's lives and disrupt the world as we know it.  

The folks at the bureau have all been affected by the Story, at one point or other and must be on guard not to become an active part of the tale once more, while fighting to protect others by whatever means necessary.

While I am rarely pleased with short-stories or serial formats, this is an interesting tale which is not yet finished.  The characters that we see on a regular basis are well-drawn and engaging and more are woven in as we progress.  

I am looking forward to the next installment.
