Genre: Urban Fantasy
Release Date: October 1, 2013
The Overview: Fathered by an incubus, raised by a mortal mother, and liaison to the Pemkowet Police Department, Daisy Johanssen pulled the community together after a summer tragedy befell the resort town she calls home. Things are back to normal—as normal as it gets for a town famous for its supernatural tourism, and presided over by the reclusive Norse goddess Hel. Not only has Daisy now gained respect as Hel’s enforcer, she’s dating Sinclair Palmer, a nice, seemingly normal human guy. Not too shabby for the daughter of a demon. Unfortunately, Sinclair has a secret. And it’s a big one. He’s descended from Obeah sorcerers and they want him back. If he doesn’t return to Jamaica to take up his rightful role in the family, they’ll unleash spirit magic that could have dire consequences for the town. It’s Daisy’s job to stop it, and she’s going to need a lot of help. But time is running out, the dead are growing restless, and one mistake could cost Daisy everything .
Nik’s Notes:
The only, and I mean the only reason I haven’t picked this series up yet is because I have this neurotic need to finish all of her other books first. Her Kushiel’s series is so epic and amazing that it has officially landed itself among my all-time favorites. I loved her characters, the world building, and the love story. I am beside myself with excitement to see her apply all of those elements to an urban fantasy setting. I can’t imagine them being anything other than fantastic!
What book are you waiting on?
Interesting choice. I love books in such settings!
