Never before have I really really wanted to like a main character, and yet struggled so much to do so. I spent most of the book wanting to say "Look, Jill, I understand that you've had a really difficult life....but why do you have to be such an ever-loving Bitch all the time???" Optimistically , I am hoping that this aspect of her character improves with time.

Secondly....More Perry! Yeah, sure he's an evil demonic hellbreed....but he's INTERESTING!

So in summary, I humbly ask whatever god is in ...more

2nd in the "Jill Kismet" series. Intriguing plot, a lot of action, some interesting background info on the characters, scary monsters... But!

It would have been even a better read if I actually liked Jill, if I could connect with her at some point, if I found her character somehow sympathetic. Basically, she's a bitch - her words, not mine. She's arrogant, volatile, brash and short-tempered.

I waited too long to read this book from when I read the first book, so it took me awhile to remember some things about Jill.

Overall I liked the story, but some things felt off to me, such as Jill always talking to her self, and I felt it took awhile for the story to really grasp me.

I will be continuing on with the series and will not wait so long to jump into the next one.
