"No fairy-ass way!"

Book: The Outlaw Demon Wails
Author: Kim Harrison


Well, I wanted to know more about demons and I got what I wished for!!!!! Rachel can have freaking Demon Children!!! How totally awesome is that? =D

So this book was absolutely amazing! There was a gargoyle named Bis, who is currently living on Jenks's church. I have to say that gargoyles are just about the neatest thing ever! I have always been really interested in them, but the way they are getting integrated into this continuous story is just so much fun. They sleep during the day and are guardians at night. They can't apparently use ley line energy but through them Rachel can sense all the lines in the entire city. I'm kinda wondering if she will figure out a way to pull on a line through Bis? :) Gargoyles also saved Rachel and Trent's butts while they were in the everafter and trapped in a church/genetic repository.

We get a totally humanized view of Al which I really don't know what to do with, to be honest. He is such a terrible, terrible being but now as we learn more about demons we see a side of him that is infused with complex emotions, needs, and desires. I am however curious to see where this new side of him will take us. Also, I am dying to find out where demons originated, why they are the bad race, and what started the feud between them and elves???? And! If witches are descendants of demons, why are they not on the same side?

There is so much I am just bursting to find out in the next book, which is why I will be cutting this short. But! This book was truly as exciting and uplifting as the last book was heartwrenching. It was so much fun to watch Ivy and Rachel try and find a balance between them and to learn out the secrets of Rachel's family, although Robbie is still a mysterious entity. I just loved, loved, loved this book! So now on to the next book =D
