Angel Town (Jill Kismet, #6)

Angel Town - Lilith Saintcrow Egalley thanks to Hachette Book group
I've always loved Lili's writing. It's very intense, furious and powerful. Angel Town is no exception, although it's not my favorite book in the series.

There is not much I can say without giving away some spoilers. Jill's awakening in her own grave is pretty gruesome. She doesn't remember who she is, but manages to find a diner in the desert and then get a ride into town.

Her memory comes back in bits and pieces, but the world she left is not the world she came back to. The uneasy truce between supernaturals is broken, the war is raging on the streets of her city and she drops right in the middle of it.

Perry is abso-freaking-lutely amazing. This book is his showdown time. I have to give credit to Lili, she manages to make her villains repulsive and alluring at the same time. You know they are evil, but you have to fight your heart no to go them.

The action as always in Lilith's books is explosive. You don't have time to take a breath before getting thrown from one emergency into another. Sometimes it's so fast you can barely understand what just happened.

Yes, I'm sad to let Jill go, but this was the only logical ending, because at the rate she was self-destructing she wouldn't have been able to stay a Hunter and survive mentally and physically. So I am happy she finally got her happy ending. She certainly deserved it.

Farewell, Jill. We'll miss you.
