Dead Witch Walking by Kim Harrison
2.0
Eh, just like the rating I gave it...it was ok. Interesting story, just kind of poorly written. Humanity has been decimated by a virus that was accidentally released, meaning that half of the population is now "Interlanders"...witches, were, leprechauns, pixies, etc, who were immune. Fearful of Interlanders, most humans live in the cities. The suburbs & countryside is populated by the magically-inclined. The story focuses on a witch who is a 'runner' by trade. Think FBI/cop combo that brings in Interlander perps. She decides to quit her job & strike out on her own as an independent, but her company doesn't take well to witches who decide to leave & she now has a contract out on her head.
There are enough cliff hangers that aren't resolved at the end that I'm going to give the 2nd book in this series a try, but so far, I wouldn't really recommend the book.
