Pale Demon by Kim Harrison
Kim Harrison is so much fun to read. Harrison is an urban fantasy author who understands the need for story, adventure, and just enough relationship interaction to give the story meaning without gutting the fantasy elements in favor of paranormal romance. In Pale Demon, many of the adventures that take place are based on relationships, but the core of the story is about commitment to friends and doing what’s right — a great combination… Rachel’s adventures in Pale Demon are truly exciting… The best part is still Rachel’s interaction with, and loyalty to, friends like Jenks and Ivy, and even her complicated relationship with Trent… Kim Harrison’s familiar characters, her deft touch at balancing several themes, and just a generally fun-to-read story make Pale Demon one of the better books that I have read in the last six months. The Hollows is an amazing series, and Pale Demon is one of the best books in the series. Read the rest.
