Death's Hand

Death's Hand An Urban Fantasy Novel

SM Reine2014
Elise Kavanagh doesn’t want to hunt demons anymore. It’s been five years since she killed her last enemy, and life has been quiet since then. She went to college. Got a job, and then lost it. Made a friend or two. Lived a normal life. Now her former partner, a powerful witch named James Faulkner, wants Elise to fight one more time. The daughter of a coven member has been possessed, and Elise is the only exorcist nearby. Becoming a hero again would mean risking discovery by old enemies. But digging into the case reveals that it might already be too late–bodies are disappearing, demons slither through the night, and the cogs of apocalypse are beginning to turn once more. Some enemies aren’t willing to let the secrets of the past stay dead… keywords: urban fantasy, paranormal romance, urban fantasy romance, werewolf romance, shapeshifter romance, angels, demons, science fiction romance, free urban fantasy novel, free books, free paranormal, exorcist, urban fantasy series

➽ And the moral of this rereread is: There's no Darkly Delicious Place (DDP™) like home Descent. Because I said so and stuff. [September 2016] The MacHalos didn't LOVE this one so Elise Kavanagh Shall Kick their Shapely Asses and I Shall Annihilate them All Buddy Read (TMdLtosEKSKtSAaISAtABR™). Friendly warning: you don't want to read this non-review, it's spectacularly crappy and totally not worthy of this mostest awesomest series. Previous rating: 3.5 stars. But that was for the books 1-3 bundle as a whole so it doesn't count and stuff. New rating: 4 stars. Because I'm biased as fish and stuff. Okay, so if I wasn't totally full of crap, I'd rate this 3 stars. But this is Elise Freaking Kavanagh. AND Reine is right up there with Awesome Pippa DaCosta when it comes to Yummy Demon Stuff. AND this is one of the best freaking UF series ever. So I don't give a freaking damn if this is a *whispers* weak first instalment. Descent is, to this day, one of the most original UF series I have ever read. And the last few books is the series are bloody mind-blowing. And nothing short of awesome. So I don't give a damn what you people think. What? Were you expecting a review? So sorry. Things to do, crap to read and all that. I'm sure lots of delightfully clever readers have written wonderfully enlightening reviews about this book, though. So please go ahead and check them out. No, no, really, I insist. You have my blessing and all that crap. These reviews obviously won't be as good as the one I would have written, but they'll still be informative. I think. Hopefully. Somewhat. Don't read anything below a 4-star rating, though. Because haters gonna hate and stuff. » And the moral of this Crappiest of Crappy Non-Reviews Ever Review (CoCNRER™) is: Obviously. · Book 0.6: Deadly Hearts ★★★★★ · Book 2: The Darkest Gate ★★★★★ · Book 3: Dark Union ★★★★ · Book 4: Damnation Marked ★★★★ · Book 5: Dire Blood ★★★★ · Book 6: Defying Fate ★★★★★ · Book 7: Paradise Damned ★★★★★ Original Crappy Boring Review (OCBR™) from when I had no life, no friends, and didn't know gifs existed can be found here. Read it at your own risk and stuff.
