Nell’s Gossip and Book Hunt 11/5/2017
Welcome to my Sunday book hunt and author gossip. Keep coming back for updates on book releases and news from favorite authors.
- Kristi Charish, author of The Adventures of Owl series and Kincaid Strange series, has just released a dark, humorous short story. Check it out here:
- Have you gotten your copy of The Trouble with the 12th Grave by Darynda Jones? Yeah? Read it all in one sitting? Not surprised. Well, Darynda gave all those folks who haven’t read her latest book a treat on her blog. A little Halloween treat. Check out here for the first chapter excerpt of The Trouble with the 12th Grave.
Title: The Trouble with the Twelfth Grave
Author: Darynda Jones
Series: Charley Davidson #12
Release date: October 31, 2017
Publisher’s Description: Grim Reaper Charley Davidson is back in the twelfth installment of Darynda Jones’ New York Times bestselling paranormal series.
Ever since Reyes escaped from a hell dimension in which Charley accidently trapped him, the son of Satan has been brimstone-bent on destroying the world his heavenly Brother created. His volatile tendencies have put Charley in a bit of a pickle. But that’s not the only briny vegetable on her plate. While trying to domesticate the feral being that used to be her husband, she also has to deal with her everyday life of annoying all manner of beings—some corporeal, some not so much—as she struggles to right the wrongs of society. Only this time she’s not uncovering a murder. This time she’s covering one up.
Add to that her new occupation of keeping a startup PI venture—the indomitable mystery-solving team of Amber Kowalski and Quentin Rutherford—out of trouble and dealing with the Vatican’s inquiries into her beloved daughter, and Charley is on the brink of throwing in the towel and becoming a professional shopper. Or possibly a live mannequin. But when someone starts attacking humans who are sensitive to the supernatural world, Charley knows it’s time to let loose her razor sharp claws. Then again, her number one suspect is the dark entity she’s loved for centuries. So the question becomes, can she tame the unruly beast before it destroys everything she’s worked so hard to protect?

Everyone’s favorite demon hunter is looking for a kidnapped Archangel, and he’s got to do something completely out of character to do it – go to church. It seems there’s a band of extreme religious zealots running around North Carolina, and their current target is a local event promoter who just happens the be the Archangel Uriel in disguise.

Title: The Hunted
Author: Jessica Gunn
Series: Hunter Circles #1
Release date: June 19, 2017
Publisher’s Description: I’m Krystin Blackwood, and I’ve only ever been good at one thing: killing demons of Darkness.
But at twenty-four, I’m about to face my toughest challenge yet: shifting from working alone to joining a team of three other Hunters. Newbie Hunters. They don’t know their magik, they barely know their place in the world, and when they find out the secrets I’ve been carrying, they’ll definitely decide it’s safer if they don’t know me.
But unfortunately for them—and me—Darkness has other plans. Lady Azar, Darkness’s heir, stole my new team leader’s son two years ago. Now, she and her lackeys are rallying to exchange Ben’s son for me because of the power I wield. I’m one-half of a prophecy to save an ancient city the Powers of Good lost centuries ago. And if I fail or die before that happens, the destruction of that city will be felt across all planes of existence.
If we can’t find Ben’s son before All Hallows’ Eve and somehow save him without putting my life at risk, that existential explosion will absolutely happen. But it’ll be nothing compared to the destruction wrought if Lady Azar changes Ben’s son into a demon… and her minion.
Because the only thing more dangerous than me with a blade is a father’s wrath.
