Review of The Accidental Demon Slayer by Angie Fox

.5


Imagine one day you are a boring preschool teacher that maps out a timed route to a restaurant you've been to several times, everything is planned to a T, lists are made, life is planned.


Then on your 3o birthday a crazy geriatric biker lady who claims to be your grandmother shows up and tells you that you are a demon slayer - then all hell breaks loose. Literally. A demon ends up on your toilet trying to kill you.


That's what happens to Lizzie Brown. Not only does she find out she is the chosen demon slayer, her grandma's a biker witch, and now her terrier is talking to her.


One minute Lizzie's ready to go to her 30th birthday party the next minute she's on the back of a Harley with only her dog and what could fit in a backpack- her old life is history.


The Accidental Demon Slayer is a wild ride ride at mach speed on the back of a Harley on a bumpy road full of twists and turns...and I couldn't get enough of it.


This was a super fast read that I couldn't get enough of, I devoured book 1 and now I'm onto book 2 and can't wait to get my hands on book 3.


The roadkill magic totally grossed me out but the rest of the magic and the witches are just hilarious. The descriptive wording is so detailed I could picture these crazy old ladies in their tight pants and (ewww push up bras).


What I liked best was the sexy shape shifting griffin, Dimitri ( go figure). Too bad he started the game with ulterior motives- but hey don't all guys?


In the end he turns out to be a sexy guy that has Lizzie's heart and I can't wait to see how their relationship progresses. If she don't want him I'll take him, though the feathered part might creep me out. I am a fur girl not so much into the feathers, I know a griffin has both but...don't know.


Anyway if you like your paranormal urban fantasy books filled with humor and craziness this series is for you. Fox has filled it with wit and charm that you can't possibly resist.

Today we have a special guest blogger, Angie Fox, author of The Accidental Demon Slayer and the upcoming release The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers

Here's a quick blurb for The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers

Accidental demon slayer Lizzie Brown and her grandma’s coven of biker witches have rolled into Sin City to take out a super-sexy succubus who has her eye on world domination – and worse, Lizzie’s man.

Welcome Angie, thank you for joining us today!

Thanks for having me on Fang-Tastic Books! I’m really excited to be here and to give away the very first copy of The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers, hot of the press.

This book was a blast to write, and I learned a valuable lesson too: be careful what you write…because it may just send you to some, ahem, unusual places. See, I write about a reluctant demon slayer forced to run off with a gang of geriatric biker witches. Add that to the fact that I tend to write what amuses me and you have a recipe for trouble.

When I was writing the end of my first book, The Accidental Demon Slayer, this joke about Las Vegas popped into my head and I thought, “why not?” Lizzie is just about to kiss her man when she’s interrupted and told she and the gang have to head to Las Vegas to save her long lost uncle from marrying a succubus. Kind of fun. At least it made me smile. I was an unpublished writer at the time.

But then the book sold. Better still, The Accidental Demon Slayer hit the New York Times bestseller list. My publisher wanted more. Heck, I wanted to write more. I remember being on the phone with my editor and she said, “so you’re going to Las Vegas, right?”

Oh yeah.

I admit it. I had these images of cool hotels and shows in my head. Then reality hit. I write about biker witches and a preschool teacher turned demon slayer. These folks don’t have a lot of spare cash lying around. This wasn’t my trip – it was theirs. Good thing I like odd adventures. And my friends do too.

One in particular – my friend Aileen – is a sucker for anything strange and unusual. So I talked her into a long weekend and we headed to Vegas to see and experience the biker witch version of Sin City. We stayed in the cheesiest hotels we could find. We ate at Bob’s Big Boy. We even visited a dude ranch with armadillos, a boar and several very old chickens.

We were able to talk our way into some behind-the-scenes places as well. The climax of The Accidental Demon Slayer takes place inside the Hoover Dam, and we were lucky enough to be invited to see first-hand what I’d be writing about. A guide took us far down into the inspection tunnels they used in the 1930’s and 40’s, when the cement was still curing. It was amazing to see the notes these inspectors made on the walls, to hear the stories of those that didn’t quite make it out and to walk the same old metal steps that they did. All of that made it into The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers, along with lots of things I had a blast making up (this is fiction after all).

And to celebrate the release of The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers next month, I’m going to give one away, fresh off the press. In fact, it won’t even come off the press until the week of April 1. In the mean time, you can read the first chapter here.

To enter to win a copy of The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers just leave a comment on this post. A winner will randomly be chosen.
