5 Stars for American Demon by Kim Harrison #bookreview

The witch is back!

I have missed this world so much.

This is my all time favorite series and I was so sad when it ended with The Witch With No Name.

Then we got a teaser with The Turn, a Hollows Prequel featuring Trent's parents. I thought we might get more prequel books after that but we get more Rachel, Ivy, Jenks, Trent and Al!!!!! Which is even better.

The events in this book pick up right after the events of book 13, before the epilogue. 

In American Demon the girls are still toddlers. Rachel and everyone are navigating life with a new Goddess, a new EverAfter, demons living among them, and she's still not getting credit for anything she does - like saving the world. 

Rachel's also adjusting to her relationship with Trent.  

The book opens with Rachel and Jenks checking out the status of their church. Construction crews have been working on rebuilding it after a large portion of it was destroyed in the final book. Ivy joins them but it is apparent she isn't going to be part of their crew anymore. She's with Nina. 

All seems standard as they inspect the church, until a zombie shows up in the garden. Things get crazier from there.

Turns out something weird is going on. People are attacking their loved ones, then can't remember why or what happened.

You know Rachel is going to end up in the middle of it all. 

Excellent read!!!! Trent gets better with every book. I love seeing him and Rachel work things out and move past their crazy history.

The new characters were interesting. I hope to see more of Hodin. I wish Al would have played a larger roll in this book. I missed his antics quite a bit but Hodin definitely filled the space.

I am so glad this series will continue. I missed it so much. 

Reading American Demon was like seeing an old friend that hasn't been around in years.
