Land of the Beautiful Dead by R. Lee Smith
Did not finish book. Stopped at 42%.
the premise that this god of death just takes her in on a whim because she happens to be the first person in so long to treat him like just another person is completely unbelievable, but it would have been fine had there been some chemistry or attraction or some sort of cleverness on the heroine's part to keep her there
but lan just kind of screams and shouts and refuses to get any smarter about her demands and continues with the same bargain as before and the only reason we're given for this happening is apparently azrael has weakened to her which is honestly stupid given that nothing shes done seems remotely endearing
not to mention that the conversations azrael has with her just highlight how dumb she is it's impossible to ignore
anyway one can understand why lan is the way she is given her background but she doesnt try to improve
