I'm reading an urban fantasy,  "Shattered" by Kevin Hearne. This is one of my favorite series, a perfect blend of mythology, urban fantasy, action, drama, humor, and excellent story-telling. The quote is from page 56 in the hardcover.


Laksha darts into the house to retrieve what I suppose must be called her exorcism kit, along with my  staff, and to offer a hurried farewell to the family. I squat down next to my hound and scratch behind her ears, trying to think of something that might hold a stronger psychic signature of my dad than the shattered remains of that clay vessel.

  1. Sounds like a fun series. I'm reading First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones at the moment, and her protagonist also mentions an exorcism kit...lol.

  2. An exorcism kit? That definitely sounds interesting and as if there's potential trouble on the horizon. I hadn't heard of this series or author yet! Thanks for sharing :) I hope you have a great weekend!

  6. I'm not sure if this is for me, but it does sound interesting. I don't think I've read Urban Fantasy either.
