Autumn Bones by Jacqueline Carey
4.0
I just love finding a new to me urban fantasy series! This is one that I just happened to find at the library and I will admit that it was the cover that caught my attention when I was checking out some books for my husband. It's the time of the year where falling leaves really tend to get my attention since we don't have a lot of color change here in Washington.
I really liked the main character Daisy who has her doubts just like any woman but also has the worry about not claiming her birthright from her father. Talk about added stress since if she claims it all kinds of really bad things will happen. And her job as Hel's enforcer didn't come with any training so it really is learn as she goes.
The secondary characters in this book really add to the story. Jen, her best friend and her Zander, is human and really helps to keep Daisy grounded. Her mother is also a real grounding influence. And then there are the men in Daisy's life which as all just yummy in their varied ways. I will admit to being part of Team Stephen.
I really enjoyed AUTUMN BONES and have already put the second book in the series on hold at my local library. I do recommend this book to any of my readers who enjoy urban fantasy that isn't too explicit sexually.
